Jubilee Deputy Party Leader Fred Matiang’i has announced his support for Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro and his new political party, the People’s Party of Kenya (PPK). The statement was made on August 18, 2026, following Nyoro's departure from the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) and his decision to join PPK. In a congratulatory message on social media platform X, Matiang’i praised Nyoro's move and emphasized the significance of Kenya's multiparty system.
