A recent poll conducted by Politrack Africa reveals that a slight majority of Kenyans currently believe their country is on the right path, according to the Kenya 2027 Presidential Preference Brief released on October 1. The survey, which polled 45.2% of respondents, found that 44.6% believe Kenya is heading in the wrong direction, with 10.2% unsure.
This marks a shift from previous opinion polls that consistently showed a majority of Kenyans viewing the country as moving in the wrong direction. Roads and housing ranked highest among areas of the William Ruto administration, receiving a 16.3% rating from respondents. Health services and agriculture followed with 13% and 10%, respectively.
While other sectors assessed in the survey received less than five percent support. The findings come amid ongoing debate over the Kenya Kwanza administration's performance and its ability to fulfill election promises. President William Ruto leads potential challengers in the 2027 presidential race, with his United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party emerging as the most supported nationwide.
The Democracy for the Citizens party (DCP) ranked second in party preference, surpassing the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM).
