Chama Cha Kazi (CCK) founded by Trade Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria is among the dissolved parties to join UDA as announced by the Secretary General Cleophas Malala.
According to the statement released, other parties include, Isaac Ruto’s Chama Cha Mashinani, currently headed by Mohamed Guleid, the Farmers Party of Irungu Nyakera, former Embu Governor Martin Wambora of Umoja na Maendeleo party, Alfayo Agufana (National Agenda Party of Kenya) and Issack Hassan Abey (Economic Freedom Party).
Malala welcomed the parties to UDA, saying the party is committed to rewriting the “tradition of political parties being episodic”.
“From today, the parties present here are no longer partners but part of the UDA family,” Malala said.

Malala said the party leaders will participate in all UDA activities including the ongoing membership registration drive, and the upcoming party grassroots elections slated for August.
“It is said that home is a feeling, not a place. And today, our fellow brothers have decided that they cannot build our nation from the periphery but right from home,” Malala said.
“For their selfless decision to shelve their ambition of individually hacking their way, joining hands with the ruling party. My brothers, you will not regret this bold decision.
“I, therefore, encourage them to advise their members to take up active role in building our great party.” He added.
