A Blueprint for Kenya's Future

Democracy for The Citizens Party presents a citizen-first programme to build a fair, productive and united country. Our plan rests on transparency, accountability and participation—putting citizens at the centre of every decision.

We believe in a Kenya where opportunity is earned on merit, services are delivered with dignity, and public resources are protected for the common good.
