The UDA party suffered a significant defeat in the Ol Kalou parliamentary by-election, with the DCP candidate Sammy Kamau Ngotho emerging victorious.

• The UDA's loss is attributed to internal party conflicts, including competing personal interests among allies of President William Ruto, ego clashes, and an uncoordinated campaign strategy.
• Key organizations involved include the UDA (ruling party) and the victorious DCP.
• Insiders suggest that prominent politicians within the UDA prioritized their own political agendas over supporting the party's candidate, Samuel Muchina.
