Platinum has the highest value and Imara being the ordinary membership,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Those wishing to be Platinum holders will part with Sh500,000, Gold (Sh100,000), Silver (Sh20,000), Bronze (Sh5,000) and Imara for ordinary members (Sh100).\u00a0Platinum holders are for friends of the party and is a prestigious card and members can vie for the presidency.<\/p>\n<p>Gold cardholders can vie for any elective post as well as a position in the National Executive Council (NEC) while Silver is for those wishing to vie for the Member of County Assembly (MCA) position and county executive branch.<\/p>\n<p>Bronze cardholders have been left for the youth and persons with disabilities (PWDs) and Imara is for ordinary members who are also entitled to participate in the party nominations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>High stakes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cEach category will bear specific privileges as outlined in the party\u2019s membership policy.

A few weeks ago, it established a management committee to guide its operations in the run-up to the 2022 poll.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe stakes are indeed high and because we have a history to contend with, our climb will even be steeper. If there is anywhere we can draw invaluable lessons as a party, it is in our past \u2013 a past of mixed fortunes, a past of ups and downs,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Salat said the party will not support any presidential candidate other than Senator Gideon.\u00a0Having participated in three general elections without fielding a presidential candidate, the cockerel party now feels it is time they also fielded a presidential candidate and get the backing of others.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis time we are not supporting anybody.
