Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna has pledged to put citizens at the centre of the Linda Mwananchi Movement’s agenda, promising constitutional reforms, reduced government spending and relief from fuel and electricity taxes if the movement gains power. Speaking during the launch of the movement’s headquarters in Lavington, Nairobi, Sifuna said its political programme would be anchored […]
Linda Mwananchi, the interim head of communication for the Presidential Campaign Secretariat, has lauded Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna for his dedication to the Constitution and the rule of law. In a Facebook post on October 30, 2026, Njoroge described Sifuna as a leader who values constitutional principles dearly, referencing the Book of Joshua to further emphasize her point.
"Starting today, we shall officially be painting the country blue as we work towards the Kenya We Want, led by Edwin Watenya Sifuna, a man who holds the Constitution and rule of law close to his heart," she wrote. Njoroge went on to state that Sifuna embodies the sentiments of Joshua 1:8, quoting, "This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night."
This biblical reference underscores the movement's emphasis on adhering to the law and staying guided by it. The unveiling of the political party and headquarters in Lavington, Nairobi, is set to solidify the movement's presence as a formal political organization ahead of the 2027 General Election. The use of the color blue to "paint the country" is also a significant aspect of the group's branding strategy.
The movement's agenda revolves around the "Kenya We Want," with constitutionalism and the rule of law as central themes in their public messaging. Sifuna is the primary figure driving the movement's political mobilization, alongside other notable politicians such as Siaya Governor James Orengo and Embakasi East MP Babu Owino. However, Njoroge's post did not disclose the party's governance structure, policy platform, or registration details, leaving further information to be revealed during the unveiling.
