Opposition leaders have signed a unity pact, vowing to support a single presidential candidate in the 2027 Kenyan General Election. The agreement, reached after consultations in Kiambu County, aims to address divisions and personal ambitions that have historically weakened opposition coalitions. The leaders, including Kalonzo Musyoka, Martha Karua, and others, signed a Personal Unity Pledge and a Coalition Unity Agreement.
They committed to participating in a joint process to select their candidate and supporting the chosen nominee, regardless of their individual positions. The pact also bans members from undermining the nominee or sponsoring rival candidates. The leaders hope this unity will present Kenyans with a credible alternative to the incumbent Kenya Kwanza administration.
The agreement emphasizes principles of putting the nation first, unity above division, and service above power.
