Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has dismissed President William Ruto’s recent public apology, terming it insincere.
The former DP argued that President Ruto’s apology failed to address the true anguish experienced by families of Gen Z protesters, who were abducted or killed during last year’s nationwide demonstrations.
“If the President genuinely seeks forgiveness,” Gachagua said, “he should start by personally reaching out to the parents of those young men and women who disappeared or were murdered.”
Speaking during a tour of Thika and Gatundu North on Saturday May 31, 2025, Gachagua also issued a stern warning to individuals allegedly being paid to disrupt his public gatherings.
He declared that anyone who attempts to interfere with his rallies would be “finished politically.”
Accompanied by several leaders aligned with his new political movement, Gachagua criticized the government’s current empowerment program led by Deputy President Kithure Kindiki.
Kiambu Senator Karungo Thang’wa described the initiative as a “political bribe” aimed at pacifying the Mt. Kenya region, questioning why the program was focused solely there.
At the same time, former Thika MP Patrick Wainaina called on opposition leaders to unite and rally behind a single presidential candidate to mount a formidable challenge against President William Ruto in the 2027 general election.
Wainaina also announced his intention to vie for the Thika Town parliamentary seat on a Democratic Congress Party (DCP) ticket in 2027.
He previously contested the Kiambu gubernatorial race in 2022, where he was defeated by Governor Kimani Wamatangi.

Andrew Gioannetti

A SOBERING afternoon at Brentford’s Gtech Community Stadium in London saw TT’s senior men’s football team slump to a one-sided 4-0 defeat against Ghana on May 31, closing their inaugural 2025 Unity Cup account without a win.
For head coach Dwight Yorke and his rebuilding squad, it was a harsh, if instructive, examination against superior opposition, one that exposed familiar defensive frailties and a worrying lack of punch in attack — but also delivered valuable lessons ahead of crucial World Cup qualifiers next month.
Both teams were understrength as the cup fell outside of the FIFA international match window.
The Black Stars, captained by Leicester City striker Jordan Ayew, wasted little time stamping their authority on the match.
Just five minutes in, Ayew received a pass from Abu Francis, drifted into space on the edge of the box and unleashed a left-footed strike that curled beyond the reach of Jabari St Hillaire and into the far corner. It was a concerningly soft concession from the Soca Warriors, with Ayew afforded far too much time and room.
And things deteriorated quickly. Six minutes later, Ayew turned provider, floating in a corner that Razak Simpson rose to meet, thumping a header in off the post for his maiden international goal.
TT’s marking was static, their defensive line disorganised, and Ghana went 2-0 ahead before the match had properly settled.
The Warriors did have moments of promise, though they were few and fleeting. The best of them came midway through the first half when Duane Muckette, one of the few bright spots in an otherwise muted midfield, struck the upright with a fierce drive.

The AC Port of Spain playmaker pounced on a loose ball on the edge of the area and unleashed a shot that had goalkeeper Lawrence Zigi beaten, but not the woodwork.
It proved a false dawn. Ghana, brimming with pace and invention down the flanks, continued to press, with teenager Christopher Bonsu Baah tormenting TT’s backline. The inevitable third arrived in the 41st.
A sharp move from right to left saw Ayew cleverly flick the ball into the path of Mohammed Fuseini, who finished with confidence to make it 3-0 before the break.
Yorke made a raft of changes for the fixture – ten in total after the 3-2 loss to Jamaica, with only captain Joevin Jones starting both matches, giving debuts and valuable minutes to several players.
He also made some key changes at halftime against Ghana, but despite some early second-half possession, the Warriors struggled to mount a meaningful response.
Any lingering hope of damage limitation was snuffed out in the 58th minute.
Gideon Mensah’s low cross seemed innocuous, but St Hillaire allowed the ball to slip through his legs at the near post, with Lawrence Agyekum claiming the goal. It was a disheartening moment in a difficult afternoon for the 25-year-old goalkeeper, who endured a testing outing behind a stretched and exposed defence.
EXPOSURE FOR YOUNG WARRIORS
Post-match, Yorke acknowledged the gulf in class but appreciated the experience gained.
“We thought, coming into this tournament, it was always going to be a big ask, especially for the local lads who haven’t been outside of TT,” Yorke said.
“Having an opportunity to play here at the Gtech Stadium in London, in front of a huge supporting crowd for Jamaica, Nigeria, and Ghana – it’s a new experience for the team.
“It wasn’t the result we wanted, but it tested the squad and gave some exposure to these young players who are the future of TT football.”
Yorke, who has been at the helm for seven months, added that the Unity Cup, although not falling within the full FIFA window, served its purpose in highlighting both potential and problem areas.
“It gives me an indication of how strong the squad is and where we need to improve. It also gives us a clear picture of what we have ahead of World Cup qualifying.”
On the topic of player availability, Yorke hinted at reinforcements for the upcoming fixtures. “You’ll see a new selection of players coming. The international window wasn’t fully open to my players here, so we’ll have a lot of them back in the equation once the window is open on June 1.”
NIGERIA LIFT THIRD UNITY CUP
In the subsequent Unity Cup final, Nigeria edged Jamaica 5-4 via kicks from the penalty spot after a tense, tactical and nearly equal effort from both teams, with the match ending 2-2 at full time. Nantes winger Moses Simon and AC Milan’s Samuel Chukwueze scored early on either side of the half for Nigeria.
Charlton Athletic forward Kaheim Dixon and Barnsley midfielder Jon Russell scored equalising goals for Jamaica in the 12th and 63rd minutes, respectively.
The result followed Nigeria’s 2-1 win over Ghana in Wednesday’s semi-final, while Jamaica reached the final courtesy of a dramatic 3-2 victory over the Warriors, sealed by a last-gasp penalty from Richard King.
Nigeria won the previous two Unity Cups, held in 2002 and 2004. The cup features countries with large diasporas in London.
Nigeria defeated Jamaica 1-0 in the first tournament. This was TT’s first invitation.
For the Soca Warriors, the focus now shifts to far more consequential fixtures. TT will host St Kitts and Nevis at the Hasely Crawford Stadium on June 6 in their opening 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying match before heading to Costa Rica for a tough assignment four days later. Yorke’s men then embark on their Concacaf Gold Cup campaign, opening against the United States on June 15.

TRINIDAD and Tobago’s senior men’s footballers suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat to Ghana in their Unity Cup third-place playoff match at Brentford’s Gtech Community Stadium, London, on May 31.
Goals from Jordan Ayew (6th), Razak Simpson (12th), Mohammed Gadafi Fuseini (42nd) and Lawrence Agyekum (58th) sealed a dominant win for the Black Stars. AC Port of Spain’s Duane Muckette, a rare spark in TT’s otherwise flat-footed midfield, came closest to scoring for the Warriors, rattling the upright with a powerful effort in the 25th.
Jamaica and Nigeria, the respective victors over TT (3-2) and Ghana (2-1) two days prior, played in the inaugural cup final after the third-place match.
Coach Dwight Yorke’s Soca Warriors now turn their attention to crucial 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying assignments.
TT host St Kitts and Nevis on June 6 at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, Port of Spain, before visiting Costa Rica on June 10.
The Warriors begin their Concacaf Gold Cup campaign against the United States on June 15.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Lilian Turban and Tara Wyllie each turned in strong efforts in their respective events, but came up short in advancing bringing the Hawai’i track and field team’s season to an end Saturday at the NCAA First Round.
Turban narrowly missed out on getting to her second career NCAA Championships outdoors in the high jump, clearing 1.81m (5-11.25) to match the qualifying mark. The senior, however, did not place in the top 12 needed to advance to Eugene, Ore. based on the fact that she missed clearing that mark on her first attempt before doing so on her second try at that height.
Wyllie came in 32nd in the triple jump in her second consecutive appearance at the NCAA First Round. The junior from Australia jumped 12.62m (41-5) on her second attempt but fouled on her other two tries, missing out on securing top-12 spot needed to move on to the NCAA Championships.
The Rainbow Wahine end their 2025 track & field season having sent four athletes to the NCAA First Round – the most since 2016. UH also finished fourth as a team at the Big West Championships, the program’s fourth consecutive top-four finish in the conference.
