Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro has made a major political declaration, announcing that he and his supporters have joined the opposition under the People’s Party of Kenya as the country’s political formations begin taking shape ahead of the 2027 General Election.
Nyoro made the announcement in a media briefing, saying he had decided to formally associate himself with the opposition and urged Kenyans to consider the People’s Party of Kenya as they assess the political leaders and alliances that could shape the next government.
“Mimi kama Ndindi Nyoro na wafuasi wangu, kutoka leo, nimeingia chama kinaitwa People’s Party of Kenya. As all members of the People’s Party of Kenya, we have today joined the opposition.”
The Kiharu MP went further to ask Kenyans to give the party consideration as political alliances take shape ahead of the August 2027 elections.
“Mkiangalia viongozi wale watapeleka Kenya mbele from next year, I also ask humbly the people of Kenya, muangalie pia People’s Party.”
Nyoro said the party has leaders who can work together with other political formations to create a broader movement ahead of the elections.
“Pia wao wako na viongozi wanaweza shikana mkono na wengine na tukomboe Kenya August of next year.”
Nyoro Reveals Meetings With Opposition Leaders
In a significant revelation, Nyoro said he has already held consultations with several prominent figures in the opposition as he considers the country’s political direction.
He named former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, former Cabinet Secretary Peter Munya, former Cabinet Secretary Martha Karua, Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka, Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna and former Siaya Governor James Orengo.
Nyoro also disclosed that he had consulted former Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i.
“I have sat down with almost all opposition leaders, with Gachagua, Munya, Martha Karua, Kalonzo Musyoka, Sifuna, James Orengo… I have consulted Fred Matiang’i.”
The consultations could fuel speculation about the emerging political alliances ahead of the 2027 presidential contest, particularly as opposition leaders continue exploring possible cooperation.
‘Tukomboe Kenya’
Nyoro also used his address to appeal to Kenyans dissatisfied with the current administration to join the political movement.
He called on Kenyans who identify with the opposition to join the People’s Party of Kenya and participate in what he described as an effort to change the country’s political direction.
“Na ukisikia People’s Party of Kenya wewe kuja tukupatie nafasi uongee tukuomboe Kenya.”
The announcement puts the sitting Kiharu MP at the centre of the rapidly shifting political landscape ahead of 2027.
Nyoro’s decision to publicly declare his entry into the opposition, coupled with his revelation that he has consulted several prominent opposition figures, raises questions about his intended role in the alliances that could emerge before the next General Election.
With the opposition already exploring ways of presenting a united front, Nyoro’s next political steps and the role of the People’s Party of Kenya in the wider opposition movement will be closely watched as the country moves toward the August 2027 elections.
