Martha Karua’s National Rainbow Coalition-Kenya (NARC-Kenya) party has announced a sweeping rebranding that includes a new name, colours, symbol, and slogan.
As detailed in a recent gazette notice, the party will now be known as the People’s Liberation Party (PLP), marking a significant transformation aimed at revitalizing its image for the upcoming 2027 General Elections.
The notice, issued under the Political Parties Act, confirms that the party will transition from its current colours of luminous red and white to a sophisticated lilac, white, and purple palette.
The party’s emblem will also see a makeover, changing to a purple rose from the traditional rose flower, symbolizing a fresh start for the political outfit.
In a bold move, Karua is not only redefining the party’s aesthetics but is also instigating structural reforms. The party plans to amend its Constitution to introduce term limits for its top officials, a groundbreaking initiative in Kenya’s political landscape.
Karua, speaking at a press conference, confirmed that this would prohibit her from vying for party leader in future elections, underscoring her commitment to fostering new leadership.
This rebranding comes on the heels of NARC-Kenya’s departure from the Azimio La Umoja-One Kenya coalition, a decision driven by ideological differences.
With party delegates endorsing this move during a National Delegates Convention, Karua aims to chart a course for the PLP that resonates with the changing political climate.
