The People’s Prosperity Party (PPP), led by Eliud Owalo, says it has secured full registration from the Office of the Registrar of Political Parties (ORPP), paving the way for it to field candidates in the 2027 General Election.
The party said it had received its full-registration certificate and would step up preparations for the polls, with Owalo seeking the party’s nomination to contest the presidency.
In a statement, PPP said it intended to field candidates for all elective positions across the country as it builds its structures ahead of the elections.
PPP said it received a provisional registration certificate on June 26, 2026, and was given 180 days to meet the statutory requirements for full registration under the Political Parties Act, 2011.
The requirements included recruiting at least 1,000 members in each of at least 24 counties, reflecting Kenya’s regional and ethnic diversity, gender balance and representation of special-interest groups, including women, youth, persons with disabilities and minorities.
The party was also required to establish a national headquarters, branch offices in at least 24 counties and county-level executive committees.
According to PPP, it met and exceeded the requirements, securing approval for full registration.
The party said it had established offices and structures in 30 counties, in addition to its national headquarters.
The counties where it says it has established branches include Siaya, Kisumu, Homa Bay, Migori, Kisii, Nyamira, Busia, Kakamega, Bungoma, Vihiga, Mombasa, Kilifi, Kwale, Tana River, Machakos, Kiambu, Kajiado, Nakuru, Nyandarua, Meru, Samburu, West Pokot, Uasin Gishu, Trans Nzoia, Nandi, Kericho, Bomet, Narok, Taita Taveta and Baringo.
PPP said it had also submitted the names and specimen signatures of its authorised officials to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) in compliance with electoral requirements.
With the registration process complete, the party said it would intensify its presidential campaign while identifying candidates for other elective seats in the 2027 elections.
PPP is seeking to mobilise members around what it describes as Kenya’s “Third Liberation”, which it defines as economic emancipation.
Its proposed agenda is built around nine thematic areas, including reducing taxes and the public debt burden, fighting corruption, providing free primary and day secondary education, and offering free public health services in government hospitals.
Other priorities include developing the digital and creative economy, positioning Kenya as a leading sporting nation in Africa, upholding constitutionalism and the rule of law, and promoting equitable distribution of national wealth.
PPP also called on Kenyans to join the party as it prepares for the next general election.
