United Democratic Alliance(UDA) has today met county coordinators from the 47 counties in a bid to popularize the political party in the coming months. 

Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua attended the meeting that saw the political outfit announce their plan to register 15 million members ahead of the 2027 Presidential election. Secretary General Cleophas Malala highlighted that next week the party will open county offices and engage in a massive recruitment drive. Mr Malala stated that they'll be targeting to recruit millions of members from opposition leader Raila Odinga's backyard. He added that they want to make the ruling party a national outfit. 

"This is the ruling party and we want to make it more popular so that it gets a national face," he said. 

Former Migori governor Okoth Obado officially joined the political alignment during the event. Malala reported that most of their new members are coming from Siaya, Mombasa and Homabay. Gachagua commented on their popularization drive saying that they are plotting uprages that will see the faction rule for 100 years.

 "We are going to build a massive machine called UDA that will rule this country for 100 years so let no one lie to you about it," said DP Gachagua. 

The DP conveyed that they are ready to welcome opposition leaders wishing to embrace their party. He disputed Raila-led claims that the ruling party is out to destroy smaller parties, saying that leaders from other outfits join UDA willfully.
