UDA party, which is led by President William Ruto met NRM to strengthen political ties.<\/p>\n<p>The UDA team, led by the party Secretary General Hassan Omar will be in Kampala for one week. Omar said that UDA will engage their NRM counterparts in discussing matters of mutual<\/p>\n<p>interest to the two parties and the friendly countries. \u201cThe UDA team is later today expected to be taken on a tour of the NRM Leadership Academy, even as the party plans to put up a similar institution,\u201d Omar said.<\/p>\n<p>On Friday, the UDA delegation will be hosted by NRM National Chairman, Uganda President Museveni. This comes weeks after UDA merged with Amani National Congress to form the United Democratic Party.<\/p>\n<p>The merger event held at State House, Nairobi, was witnessed by President Ruto and Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi. Mudavadi ceded ANC&#8217;s party leadership position to Timamy<\/p>\n<p>upon his inclusion into the Kenya Kwanza government. UDA chairperson Cecily Mbarire assured that the new party will not lock out any part of the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are no longer the party of shareholding. You do not need<\/p>\n<p>a certificate of shareholding to join the new formation. It is a face of united Kenya, where we ought to be,\u201d she said. Mbarire announced that the new party will also be rebranded<\/p>\n<p>ahead of the 2027 General Election. \u201cThe party has incorporated ANC\u2019s identity symbols in the logo, imagery, and topography and shall resultantly undertake myriad changes in the<\/p>\n<p>governance and structure of the party,\u201d she explained. She said ANC secretariat members will be included in the new formation. \u201cThe said officials shall incorporate other staff members<\/p>\n<p>and integrate structure organs and modalities of ANC into the new party,\u201d Mbarire said. She added that the new outfit will harmonise core values and embark on a membership recruitment drive.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Kenya<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
