Saboti Member of Parliament Caleb Amisi has predicted that Kenya’s constitutional order will prevail in the 2027 General Election, signalling a smooth transition of power.

Taking to his X account on Wednesday, August 27, 2025, Amisi noted that Kenyans will cast their votes on August 10, 2027, and by August 24, a new president will have been sworn into office, in line with constitutional timelines.

He dismissed claims by some political operatives that the ruling administration might cling to power beyond its mandate, emphasising that the Constitution provides clear safeguards against such a scenario.

“The Kenya Kwanza tenderpreneurs, UDA operatives, and the loudmouth mandarins will shed tears uncontrollably in disbelief, watching President Ruto smiling at Kasarani as he hands over power to another Kenyan. That is the beauty of our Constitution,” Amisi stated.

The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) legislator added that Kenya is in need of a political and governance renaissance. A member of the opposition leader Raila Odinga’s political outfit has been vocal in criticising the Kenya Kwanza administration, particularly on matters of governance, economic management, and adherence to constitutional principles.

Amisi’s attack on Ruto

Recently, the Saboti lawmaker responded to President William Ruto following his recent remarks linking Parliament to corruption, likening the fight against graft to a political chessboard. Taking to his X account on Tuesday, August 19, 2025, Amisi dismissed the president’s comments as hypocritical, accusing the Kenya Kwanza administration of lacking the moral authority to lecture the nation on corruption.

Meanwhile, Amisi’s sentiments of a smooth transition after the 2027 General Election come after former Deputy President, Rigathi Gachagua, declared his presidential bid in 2027.

Speaking on a local TV station on Tuesday night, August 26, 2025, the Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP) leader argued that the constitution and ongoing court processes preserve his eligibility to remain a candidate in the 2027 presidential race, provided the court rules in favour of his 2024 impeachment.

“I am qualified, and I have support. The Constitution guarantees your right to vie for elective office even if you have been convicted, if you have not exhausted the remedies available in law. The Supreme Court has not made a ruling on my impeachment,” Gachagua declared.
