Moses Kuria, the nominee for Trade Cabinet Secretary, is planning to dissolve his Chama Cha Kazi party and join the United Democratic Alliance.
Kuria claimed during a funeral in Elgeyo Marakwet that he has written to political parties registrar Ann Nderitu to request the dissolution of his party.
“Just yesterday I was the leader of Chama cha Kazi. I dissolved it and went to the registrar and joined UDA. IÂ want us to join hands and once nominations are over you give us the name of the candidate.”
In the event that a by-election is called after Senator Murkomen Kipchumba was appointed to the cabinet, the former Gatundu South MP urged locals to support the UDA by electing a UDA senator.
In accordance with the Political Parties Act, the registrar is required to publish the party’s dissolution within seven days of receiving a request to fold a political party.
