Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>The United Democratic Alliance (UDA) has confirmed recent issues regarding delayed payment of staff salaries, assuring that steps have been taken to resolve the matter promptly.<\/p>\n

In a phone interview with the Star on Thursday, UDA National Treasurer Japheth Nyakundi acknowledged the delays, stating that for several months, staff members have experienced delays in receiving their salaries.<\/p>\n

“Yes, there has indeed been a small issue with delayed salaries for the past few months, but I want to assure our staff and the public that this issue has been handled. Moving forward, salaries will be paid on time,” he said.<\/p>\n

Nyakundi emphasized that the situation has been addressed amicably and staff will now be paid on time.<\/p>\n

He likened political parties to institutions that follow law and order, noting that the UDA party remains stable despite rumours to the contrary.<\/p>\n

“UDA party is stable and united, and grassroots elections are going on very well as planned,” he added.<\/p>\n

“There have been no internal wrangles within the party as reported.”<\/p>\n

Nyakundi at the same time defended the party\u2019s Secretary General, Cleophas Malala, stating that he has the right to express his opinions.<\/p>\n

His counterpart, Antonella Kakuko, the director of digital communications denied earlier reports that the party’s social media pages like Facebook had been hacked.<\/p>\n

“Our Facebook page wasn’t hacked, and it is not under any threat. The only issue was that some editors and admins were denied access to the page,” she said.<\/p>\n

Malala’s recent decision to issue warnings to prominent UDA leaders and Cabinet Secretaries regarding politicking saw him attract criticism.<\/p>\n

Leaders like Governor Mutahi Kahiga, MPs Oscar Sudi, and Gathoni Wamuchomba fired back at him saying he should make good his threat of instituting any disciplinary action against them.<\/p>\n

Political analyst Albert Kasembeli has told the Star that the internal conflicts and leadership wrangles facing UDA present a clear risk of the party losing its grip on national politics.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe current scenario within UDA demonstrates how internal strife can undermine party unity and effectiveness, leading to a loss of public trust and support,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Kasembeli stressed that to avoid disintegration, the UDA party needs to address these internal issues promptly and transparently.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis kind of internal strife and the resulting low morale among staff are reminiscent of the disarray that plagued other big parties. When internal power struggles overshadow party objectives and governance, it inevitably leads to dysfunction and loss of public confidence,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
