Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro has claimed that the People's Party of Kenya (PPK), which he recently assumed leadership of, has been in existence for over three decades, making it older than the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party he left. In an interview with Kameme FM host Gatonye Mbugua, Nyoro stated that PPK was established in 1996, positioning it as a more established political entity than both the UDA and most other parties in the region.

He noted that the party's origins can be traced back to Harun Waweru, with its current leadership structure and composition being established in 2024 under the guidance of then-chairman Jacob Gitau and former secretary-general John Kihiko. Nyoro expressed confidence in the growing popularity of PPK, citing the increasing number of politicians joining the party as a sign of its growing appeal and ability to meet the political needs of its members.
