President William Ruto has welcomed former Cabinet Secretary Aisha Jumwa back to the United Democratic Alliance (UDA), in a significant political development that could strengthen the party’s influence at the Coast and beyond. The President received Jumwa at State House, Mombasa, where he announced her return to the ruling party.
In welcoming her back, President Ruto expressed confidence in working with the former CS to advance UDA’s transformation agenda, particularly at the Coast region, which remains an important political battleground ahead of the 2027 General Election.
The President said Jumwa’s return reflects the party’s continued commitment to bringing leaders together and building a united political movement capable of advancing its development agenda across the country.
Ruto further emphasised the importance of political inclusivity, saying his administration and the ruling party remain committed to uniting leaders and Kenyans around a shared vision of a united, inclusive and prosperous Kenya.
Jumwa’s return marks another political moment in UDA’s ongoing efforts to consolidate its grassroots networks and strengthen its national appeal. The President concluded his message with the party’s rallying call, “Usawa ni Sawa, Mbele Pamoja,” signalling a renewed push for unity and collective political action.
