The United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Party Vows Disciplinary Action Against Members Contravening Government Stance
The Secretary-General of the UDA Party, Cleophas Malala, has emphatically stated that the UDA is steadfast in its support for its leader, President William Ruto.
He cautioned members against endorsing agendas conflicting with the government’s position on various issues, asserting that such members misunderstand the government’s plans and the party’s manifesto under which they were elected.
“Our leader has been diligently working to implement projects aimed at rescuing the nation from economic downturn, but we have members who fail to comprehend this. They openly oppose the government’s stances and projects. We will not tolerate UDA members opposing government projects. Henceforth, we will implement internal strategies to deal with such members,” warned Mr. Malala.
He made these remarks at the launch of the party’s offices in Nakuru, where he stated that the UDA has established systems for members to submit grievances, including through parliamentary group meetings.
He revealed that discussions are ongoing for the dissolution of Kenya Kwanza’s affiliate parties to form a single, strong party akin to the Communist Party in China. “We want to have a strong party like the Communist Party in China. We are in talks with affiliate parties to persuade them to dissolve and join UDA,” he said.
Regarding cooperation with the Communist Party of China, Mr. Malala stated that it aims to facilitate a fair digital election process and assistance in establishing modern UDA headquarters.
“We have already purchased land to build a modern office, which will also include a UDA leadership school to guide young leaders inheriting the current generation of leaders,” he said.
Mr. Malala reiterated the party’s stance against the proposed referendum by the Azimio la Umoja coalition, stating that all proposals will be implemented through Parliament.
Nakuru Governor Susan Kihika urged members opposing the party’s projects to resign and seek new mandates through other parties. She criticized the opposition for attempting to push the country back into an election through a referendum.
“We do not have the time or strength to entertain the idea of a referendum when dealing with our economy. But if it happens, our stance will remain as it was during the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI),” said Governor Kihika.
Kenya Kwanza opposed the proposed referendum in the BBI.
The leader of the Communist Party of China’s Delegation, Mao Ding Zhi, expressed the party’s commitment to collaborate with the UDA.
