MPs Koimburi and Nyoro Announce Splits from DCP and UDA Parties - January 2026

Juja Member of Parliament George Koimburi has announced his departure from the Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP), stating he plans to join President William Ruto's United Democratic Alliance (UDA). Koimburi cited corruption, intimidation, and the sidelining of long-serving members as reasons for leaving DCP. In response, the DCP has vehemently denied Koimburi’s claims, with Secretary-General Hezron Obaga asserting that the MP was never a member of the party. In a separate development, Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro has publicly criticized the United Democratic Alliance (UDA), citing a split due to the party's perceived abandonment of key economic and education promises made during the 2022 campaign.
