A public feud has erupted within the Maendeleo Chap Chap Party (MCCP) following a faction's move to popularize the United Democratic Alliance (UDA), reportedly under pressure from President William Ruto to dissolve MCCP.

• The dispute is primarily between Labour and Social Protection Cabinet Secretary Alfred Mutua, associated with MCCP, and Kibwezi West MP Mwengi Mutuse, who is leading the faction towards UDA.
• President Ruto has been actively pushing for the dissolution of MCCP, which has been a point of contention.
• Mwengi Mutuse has openly declared his intention to work closer with President Ruto under UDA, even changing his event's theme color from MCCP's purple to UDA's yellow.
