Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi is actively campaigning in Malava, urging residents to reject Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP) in the upcoming November by-elections. Mudavadi advocates for supporting the United Democratic Alliance (UDA), emphasizing its governmental backing and established structure for delivering development.

• Mudavadi described DCP as an "inexperienced and untested" party, noting it "is not even a parliamentary party."
• The campaign aims to consolidate the UDA base in Malava, with Mudavadi tasked by the UDA leadership to lead these efforts.
• UDA aspirants David Ndakwa, Shimaka Leonard, Ryan Injendi, and Simon Kangwana have pledged loyalty to the party, promising not to defect if they lose in the nominations and to support the eventual nominee against opposition candidates like Seth Panyako (DAP-K) and Edgar Busiega (DCP).

The 20-day suspension of Githunguri MP Gathoni Wamuchomba from the National Assembly has sparked outrage among UDA women leaders, who accuse President William Ruto of betraying pledges made in the Kenya Kwanza Women’s Charter. Wamuchomba was suspended after protesting the government’s response to the 2024 Kware Dumpsite femicide.

• Githunguri MP Gathoni Wamuchomba was suspended for 20 days from the National Assembly.
• Former nominated Senator Gloria Orwoba described the suspension as a "direct attack on women’s advocacy," accusing President Ruto of abandoning promises to women.
• Wamuchomba also claimed the Parliament is “captured” by corruption, accusing the President of complicity.

The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) has replaced Senator Gloria Orwoba with Consolata Wakwabubi as a nominated senator for the United Democratic Alliance (UDA). This follows Orwoba's expulsion from the party due to misconduct and disloyalty.

• Orwoba was expelled from UDA on May 19.
• The changes were formalized via a notice dated August 15, amending Gazette Notice No. 10537 of 2022.
• Orwoba was accused of publicly supporting former Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i, creating a conflict with UDA party leader President William Ruto.
