Ruto’s UDA party secures from China’s Communist support in quest to remain relevant for over 100 years.
On Thursday, the Chinese government vowed to back the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party of President William Ruto in order to preserve his legacy.
Zhou Pingjian, the ambassador of China to Kenya, reaffirmed that China had enabled training for Kenya in a manner similar to others conducted in various countries across Africa and the globe.
“China and Kenya have enjoyed a strategic partnership for 60 years. We have confidence in the leadership of President William Ruto,” Zhou Pingjian stated.
“We see a lot of potential for further cooperation. We are ready to facilitate party-to-party exchanges,” he added.
The Chima ambassador spoke in a meeting with UDA Secretary General Cleophas Malala and Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua at Karen.
Gachagua lamented that political parties in Kenya frequently disband after the general election, but UDA aimed to last 100 years like China’s Communist Party.
“The United Democratic Alliance is the younger brother of CPC, but it is the party of the future. We want to develop it like CPC. Work with us in creating structures and building the capacity of our staff,” the DP remarked.

“It cannot be a party for elections only. We must make UDA stay around for 100 years. Our Ideology is Bottom-up Economic Transformation.
Training some of our staff will enable them to come back and transfer the knowledge to others,” Gachagua added.
In addition, Gachagua emphasised that parties established on firm ideologies contribute to the socioeconomic stability of a country.
Besides the sustenance of UDA, the two leaders discussed trade and investment opportunities to create jobs for the youth.
Gachagua engaged with the President of the Xinhua News Agency, Fu Hua of China, to look for a way forward in revamping KBC.
“We want to reboot KBC into a vibrant and objective agency in informing the people of Kenya,” the DP stated.
Hua emphasised that Xinhua is ready to work with the Kenya Broadcasting Corporation in integrating new technology and innovation into impactful story-telling.
