In a shocking public rant, the Mavoko MP hurled insults while claiming he\u2019s still a loyal Wiper member. But Kenyans aren\u2019t fools. The writing has been on the wall for months. Makau has become the textbook definition of a political traitor: a UDA agent planted within Wiper to sabotage Kalonzo Musyoka\u2019s 2027 presidential dreams from within. While true Wiper loyalists hit the ground running in support of Kalonzo, Makau lurks in the shadows absent from rallies, allergic to party unity, and working behind the scenes to derail the cause.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 576px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-4243-1\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/VID-20250712-WA0331.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/VID-20250712-WA0331.mp4\">https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/VID-20250712-WA0331.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4244\" src=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1752327942994.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"254\" height=\"189\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is no longer speculation it\u2019s fact. When Kalonzo hosted the historic \u201cTseikuru Declaration,\u201d Makau chose to snub his own party leader. Same story at the Machakos town rally at Mulu Mutisya Gardens. And when Kalonzo toured Makueni, Taita Taveta, and the Coast, where was Makau? Missing in action. His silence and absence are not accidental. They are deliberate acts of disloyalty a cold, calculated plot to weaken Kalonzo\u2019s base while pretending to play nice. Wiper supporters have seen through it, and they are fed up.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4245\" src=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1752327900618-237x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"237\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1752327900618-237x300.jpg 237w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1752327900618.jpg 695w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 237px) 100vw, 237px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The worst betrayal came during the impeachment of Rigathi Gachagua. Kalonzo gave a clear directive: Wiper MPs should vote *NO*. But Makau, in open defiance, took the money and voted *YES*. Sources allege he was handsomely rewarded by President Ruto&#8217;s inner circle. That vote was not just a betrayal of the party it was a public declaration that Makau answers to UDA, not Wiper. And then he had the audacity to declare that Kalonzo shouldn\u2019t be the one to make him governor? That\u2019s not loyalty that\u2019s political treason wrapped in arrogance.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4246\" src=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1752327826372-242x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"242\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1752327826372-242x300.jpg 242w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1752327826372.jpg 695w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 242px) 100vw, 242px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now Makau is angling for the Machakos governorship not to serve the people, but to recapture the looting grounds he lost. Governor Wavinya Ndeti shut down corrupt revenue streams in mining and quarries, stopping over KSh 200 million from leaking into private pockets. Makau, reportedly one of the main beneficiaries, is furious. He&#8217;s now teaming up with UDA loyalists like Speaker Anne Kiusya, Caleb Mule, and Kawaya to sabotage county governance. His mission is clear: hijack Machakos for UDA, destroy Kalonzo\u2019s presidential path, and fatten his own pockets. It\u2019s no longer just politics it\u2019s war against integrity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patrick Makau is no longer hiding he\u2019s exposed, and the mask has slipped.
