The Political Parties Disputes Tribunal (PPDT) has certified as urgent a dispute over the Linda Mwananchi Movement's registration refusal by the Registrar of Political Parties. The case, filed by Suba South MP Michael Caroli Omondi, former Law Society of Kenya President Faith Odhiambo, and Pauline Njoki Njoroge, challenges the contradictory decisions made by the Registrar regarding the reservation of the party name.
The applicants argue that the reversal of the decision is unlawful and infringes their constitutional rights, as well as alleging that the movement has gained significant support through its digital platform. The PPDT has ordered the Registrar to file a response by August 24, with the case to be heard on August 25, 2026.
