The United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Party on Thursday suffered a major blow after several Kakamega UDA founder members and officials decamped to the Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) headed by former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua.
Speaking to the Press in Kakamega town, the former UDA members said their move was informed by the fact that President William Ruto betrayed his former DP Gachagua, former UDA Secretary General Cleophas Malala, the Western region community, and Kenyans at large.
The DCP members said the UDA party under President Ruto has become a dictatorial party that lacks democracy and visionary leadership. "We have officially resigned from UDA, and we are now in DCP.
As the founder members of UDA, we feel betrayed and duped by the leadership of President Ruto.
