Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi has spoken out after sections of the media associated him with a new political party.

In a statement on Sunday, April 6, 2025, the director of press service office of the prime cabinet secretary & Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs of Jacob Ng’etich insisted that Mudavadi is a member of the Kenya Kwanza Alliance.

“Musalia Mudavadi, Prime Cabinet Secretary and Cabinet Secretary for Foreign and Diaspora Affairs, has noted with concern reports in some media outlets associating him with a new political party,” Ng’etich stated.

“For the record and avoidance of doubt, Dr. Mudavadi is firmly in the Government under the Kenya Kwanza Alliance Administration led by H.E. Dr. William Samoei Ruto, President of the Republic of Kenya and Commander-In-Chief of the Defence Forces. Before joining the Government, Dr Mudavadi was the party leader of the Amani National Congress (ANC), which joined President Ruto’s United Democratic Alliance (UDA) and other parties to form the Kenya Kwanza Alliance before the August 2022 general election. ANC and UDA eventually merged in January 2025.”

According to Ng’etich, throughout his political life, Mudavadi has maintained integrity, honesty, and dignity in his way of doing things and has never had a double face.

“Mudavadi believes in high ideals of unity and cohesion and the move to merge his ANC party with the President’s UDA party was voluntary and was endorsed by the party members. His former ANC party officials are among the highest echelons in the ruling party, including the deputy party leader position. They are key decision-makers in the way of running the political outfit,” he added.

Ng’etich says Mudavadi remains committed to his government’s responsibility of diligently serving the people of Kenya and has no intention of joining another political outfit.
