Calvince “Gaucho” Okoth, a self-proclaimed ghetto president, has called for unity among the youth in the opposition’s Azimio la Umoja coalition.
Speaking at a church service attended by Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka, Gaucho said that the youth need to come together and overcome the challenges they face in their daily lives.
He also urged the youth to be vigilant and to protect themselves from harm, in light of recent threats against Raila Odinga.
Gaucho thanked Musyoka for supporting him during the tough political times he has endured in recent times. He also noted that several lawmakers skipped the recent countrywide anti-government protests called by Azimio leader Raila Odinga.
Gaucho has been a vocal critic of President William Ruto’s government. He has also been critical of some of the politicians in Odinga’s circle.
In recent months, Gaucho has claimed that he has been attacked and beaten by unknown people. He has also said that he has been targeted for criticism and even accused of receiving bribes from the government.
Despite these challenges, Gaucho remains committed to fighting for the rights of the youth. He urged the youth to unite and to overcome the divisions that have been created by politicians.
He also warned against any attempts to harm himself or Odinga, saying that those who dare to lay a hand on them will face severe consequences.
Gaucho’s call for unity among the youth is timely, as the 2022 general elections approach. The youth are a powerful force in Kenyan politics, and they can make a significant difference in the outcome of the elections.
If the youth can unite and vote together, they can elect leaders who will represent their interests and who will fight for their rights.
Gaucho’s message of hope and unity is a powerful one, and it is one that the youth should heed. By uniting, the youth can make a difference in Kenya and create a better future for themselves and their country.
