In 2022, he contested the Kakamega governorship on a UDA ticket but lost to ODM\u2019s Fernandes Barasa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-senate-return\">Senate return <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Political insiders say Malala is now eyeing a return to the Kakamega Senate seat in 2027, with his anticipated exit from DCP viewed as part of an early political realignment ahead of the next General Election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Gachagua has dismissed reports of a fallout, describing Malala as a principled and courageous leader who is only temporarily away from party activities due to illness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking during a political engagement, Gachagua said Malala fell ill after attending the Malala Super Cup tournament in Kakamega and sought permission to take time off to recover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCleophas Malala is a bold leader and a man of principle. He attended the Malala Super Cup in Kakamega, after which he became seriously ill and asked for time to rest before resuming party duties,\u201d Gachagua said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He accused allies of President Ruto of spreading misinformation to portray DCP as divided, saying the claims were part of a broader political scheme to weaken the party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThese people around Ruto are stuck. Their work now is just spreading rumours,\u201d the former Deputy President added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even so, DCP has in recent months suffered a series of high-profile defections, with several Gachagua allies leaving his political camp, including Juja MP George Koimburi, Maragua MP Mary Wamaua, Kangema MP Peter Kihungi, and Githunguri MP Gathoni Wamuchomba.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cleophas Malala is set to quit Gachagua\u2019s DCP for UDA following fallout over the Malava by-election, sources say, despite Gachagua
