Kindiki Meets Njuri Ncheke as Mt Kenya East Base Firms Up

Deputy President Kithure Kindiki engages the Njuri Ncheke Council of Elders at their supreme shrine in Nchiru, Meru County, reinforcing his deep cultural and political ties in Mt Kenya East. The revered Ameru council has repeatedly endorsed Kindiki — an installed Njuri Ncheke elder — as the region's kingpin and link to President Ruto. But the engagement unfolds amid a leadership split within the council, disputes over its legitimacy, and concerns that political endorsements breach the elders' apolitical tradition, with Gachagua's camp rejecting them. News One Kenya reports the engagement and the fuller picture. #NewsOneKenya #Kindiki #NjuriNcheke #Meru #MtKenyaEast
