Months after parting ways with the ruling UDA party, Murang'a Governor Irungu Kang'ata has announced that he will seek re-election in 2027 on a Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) ticket.

Kang'ata becomes the latest political leader to align himself with the party founded by former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, as it continues to attract new members ahead of the next General Election.

The governor, who is part of the Linda Mwananchi movement, said he would nonetheless maintain ties with the Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna’s team.
