Caleb Amisi, Member of Parliament for Saboti, has introduced the People's Renaissance Movement (PM) Party's initial rally as the new political party expands its grassroots outreach to Tharaka Nithi. On Saturday, September 5, 2026, the MP announced the event via his official X account, describing it as the start of a "ground invasion" aimed at directly engaging voters.
The rally will embark on a tour encompassing Kairuni PCEA Church, Chogoria, Marima, Ndagani, and Chuka in Tharaka Nithi. This campaign coincides with the PM Party's shift from internal preparations to building grassroots presence ahead of the 2027 General Election. Party officials have confirmed the itinerary, which includes stops at various locations within the region.
Amisi had previously noted the completion of internal organisational work and the establishment of legal mechanisms necessary for election preparation, emphasizing the party's readiness to meet voters nationwide. The Tharaka Nithi rally is part of the PM Party's broader strategy to establish regional structures as the 2027 political landscape shapes up.
The party plans further grassroots engagements in counties such as Taita Taveta, Kilifi, Mombasa, Kwale, Thika, Makueni, Busia, Vihiga, Nandi, Kakamega, Bungoma, and Trans Nzoia. The launch of the PM Party in August saw Amisi position it as a platform for economic liberation, justice, and empowerment, challenging the existing political order and aiming to channel the energy of youth-led protests into electoral politics through legitimate means.
This Tharaka Nithi mobilisation is part of Amisi's expanding political activities beyond his Saboti constituency, with previous support for the PM Party's candidate in the Ol Kalou parliamentary by-election. The nationwide tour is expected to provide a comprehensive test for the party's ability to build support beyond its western Kenya base, potentially offering insights into voter perceptions in a region that will be closely monitored as political dynamics evolve in the lead-up to the 2027 election.
