Tribunal Nullifies Orwoba's UDA Expulsion as Tuju Quits Jubilee and Malala Woos ODM MPs - August 2025
The Political Parties Disputes Tribunal (PPDT) has nullified the expulsion of former Nominated Senator Gloria Orwoba from the United Democratic Alliance (UDA), ruling the process was unlawful and politically motivated. The tribunal found that UDA denied Orwoba a fair hearing and the process had procedural flaws. In a separate party development, Raphael Tuju has officially resigned from the Jubilee Party after nearly a decade, a decision communicated in a letter to Party Leader Uhuru Kenyatta. Meanwhile, Cleophas Malala, Deputy Party Leader of the Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP), has invited disgruntled ODM members, including Senator Edwin Sifuna and MP Babu Owino, to join the United Opposition. This invitation aims to work towards ensuring President William Ruto serves only one term.
