Several political parties in Kenya, including Jubilee and Kanu, are at risk of deregistration for failing to establish physical offices in at least 24 counties, a requirement of the Political Parties Act.

• Jubilee and Kanu are among the parties flagged for non-compliance by Auditor-General Nancy Gathungu.
• The law requires parties to have offices in more than half of the country's 47 counties to maintain full registration.
• Parties like UDA, ODM, and Wiper are noted as compliant with this requirement.

The upcoming 2027 Kenyan General Election is shaping up to be a contest for a presidency that will inherit immense economic, political, and social challenges, dubbed the "hell presidency" by analysts.

• The next president will face a staggering debt of Sh13 trillion, Sh700 billion in pending bills, and a significant youth population grappling with stagnant employment.
• Key political figures like President William Ruto, Deputy President Prof Kithure Kindiki, Mr Rigathi Gachagua, and Dr Fred Matiang’i are presenting contrasting visions for the nation's future.
• Concerns are mounting over potential youth uprisings and a fractured legislative landscape characterized by regional parties and coalition pacts, suggesting a future of constant negotiation.
