Saturday, March 14,
2026 - Githunguri MP, Gathoni Wamuchomba, has sparked heated debate after
showing up at Senator Karungo wa Thang’wa’s home in Kiambu draped in a bold
yellow UDA scarf during a condolence visit.
The gathering, held on Saturday, March 14th, was
meant to honor the late Lucia Wangui, Thang’wa’s mother, who passed away on March
5th.
Photos of Wamuchomba smiling beside the memorial portrait
quickly circulated online, with critics questioning why she chose to wear party
colors at such a sombre occasion.
Some accused her of politicizing grief, especially given
Thang’wa’s fallout with UDA and his alignment with Deputy President Rigathi
Gachagua.
Responding to the criticism, Wamuchomba remained
unapologetic.
“I said it, I will wear my yellow everywhere. If you don’t
like it, wear yours without drama.”
“Mine is yellow unapologetically! Tomorrow tuko ready for
the yellow Dub-by,” she declared.
However, some netizens defended her, pointing out that other
leaders had worn caps linked to Gachagua’s DCP party.
Among those who condoled with Thang’wa were Gachagua, Pastor
Dorcas Rigathi and DCP Deputy Party Leader Cleophas Malalah.
