Monday, June 23, 2025 - Former United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Secretary General, Cleophas Malala, has revealed that his ouster from the ruling party was triggered by his attempts to hold President William Ruto accountable to the promises made during the 2022 election campaigns.
In a candid revelation, Malala said he had compiled a
document outlining all of UDA’s campaign pledges in an effort to track the
administration’s performance.
However, this initiative was met with resistance within the
party.
“When I was Secretary General of UDA, I tried to compile all
the promises into a single document to ensure we stayed on track.”
“But when we raised these issues, we were seen as moles,”
Malala stated.
He added that reminding President Ruto of the party’s
bottom-up economic model was misinterpreted as disloyalty.
“We were viewed as having lost hope in him. That’s when they
decided to kick me out,” he said.
Malala, now Deputy Party Leader of Gachagua’s the Democracy
for the Citizens Party (DCP), described his removal as a “blessing in
disguise.”
“I have never regretted leaving UDA. I would have sunk with
the entire ship,” he declared.
He also criticized Parliament, terming it the most
disorganized since independence.
“We don’t know who is in government or opposition. The
system is in total confusion,” he said.
