The Western tour itinerary

Democratic Action Party-Kenya (DAP-K) leader Eugene Wamalwa has unveiled the itinerary for the upcoming Linda Mwananchi rally in Western Kenya, set to commence on Friday, June 13, 2026.

Speaking during an interview with a local media station on Tuesday, June 9, 2026, the outspoken former defence minister stated that the tour will begin in Luanda, Vihiga County, where the team intends to comb the county before proceeding to Kakamega County, where they will continue spreading the Wantam gospel before making inroads into Busia County, a region largely considered an Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) stronghold.

“We will begin in Vihiga, then Kakamega, Busia, Bungoma County, Kiminini, and then the final rally in Kitale town.”

He further stated that the United Alternative Government entourage will then head to Bungoma County, where they intend to traverse the Ken Lusaka-led county, making stopovers in major trading centres before proceeding to Trans Nzoia County.

There, they will be hosted by Governor George Natembeya, with a home-stretch rally planned for Kiminini and a final grand rally in Kitale Town.
