Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi is drumming up support for President William Ruto’s United Democratic Alliance (UDA), his party vehicle in the 2027 General Elections. 

The Foreign Affairs Cabinet Secretary on Tuesday engaged a delegation of over 200 supporters of President William Ruto’s re-election bid under the “Musalia Power House for Ruto” movement. 

During the engagement, Mudavadi revisited his decision to dissolve his party, the Amani National Congress (ANC) and join Ruto’s UDA.

This, Mudavadi said, was a strategic decision that he does not regret making. 

“We chose strategy over shortcuts. Dissolving ANC was a deliberate, forward-looking decision. We are not looking back like Lot’s wife. There is no going back,” Mudavadi told delegates. 

The Prime CS called for mass registrations to UDA party, which he called ‘home’. 

According to Mudavadi, ANC dissolution followed the law and constitution. This is despite a court ruling that nullified the January 2025 merger between Mudavadi’s party and that of President Ruto. 

“We used legal and constitutional ways. Now we are inside UDA fully,” he said. 

At the delegates meeting, Mudavadi also called for disciplined organisation, urging members not only to join UDA but to actively participate in the ongoing voter registration exercise by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).
