Friday, April 11,
2025 - Nyali MP Mohammed Ali has hinted at cracks within the United
Democratic Alliance (UDA) after suggesting that he may leave the party, citing
betrayal of democratic ideals and manipulation by senior officials ahead of the
2027 elections.
In a strongly worded video statement, Ali announced that he
and his team will boycott the upcoming UDA grassroots elections scheduled for
Saturday, April 12th, in Mombasa County.
He accused UDA Secretary General Hassan Omar of
orchestrating a scheme to handpick candidates, sidelining party members who
have been loyal from the beginning.
"The party’s Secretary General wants to hijack the
democracy of the people of Mombasa by handpicking his own people for various
positions," Ali said.
"He already has a list of preferred individuals which
he intends to push through.”
“He does not want to allow the proper democratic process. He
is denying others the opportunity to participate freely."
Ali further claimed that loyal party members who played a
pivotal role in UDA’s rise are being cast aside for questioning internal
decisions.
“Those who toiled for the party and stood with it when it
was still unknown have been cast aside... The secretary general wants
cheerleaders, not critical thinkers,” he added.
“If he persists in treating the party as his personal
property, we will be left with no choice but to decamp as one.”
“After all, we are for the people, and our allegiance will
always remain steadfastly with the people.”
The remarks have sparked speculation of deeper divisions
within the ruling party.
