Kenya’s political momentum shifted decisively on 26 February 2026 as the United Democratic Alliance secured a commanding sweep in the latest by-elections, sending a powerful message about the direction voters want the country to take.
From Isiolo South to West Kabras, Evurore, and Muminji, the so-called Yellow Wave turned out in force, delivering resounding victories that the Party describes as a clear endorsement of its reform-driven, opportunity-focused agenda.
For UDA’s growing base of young supporters, the outcome was more than a win at the ballot. It was a statement about the future.
Hon. Tubi Mohamed Tubi clinched the Isiolo South parliamentary seat, while Hon. Eliphas Kaianga, Hon. Duncan Muratia Nyaga, and Hon. Peterson Njeru Njiru secured victories in West Kabras, Evurore, and Muminji Wards, respectively.
The results represent a full sweep across all seats contested by the Party.
In a statement from the Office of the Secretary General, UDA thanked voters for turning out peacefully and exercising their democratic right with confidence and clarity.
The Party credited the victories to what it called a growing demand for practical leadership focused on jobs, enterprise growth, infrastructure expansion, and inclusive economic transformation.
Across digital platforms and on the ground, youth voices played a visible role in energising campaigns.
Supporters framed the by-elections as a referendum on delivery versus rhetoric, positioning UDA’s development blueprint, The Plan, as a roadmap for accelerating Kenya’s transition toward global competitiveness and expanded opportunity for young entrepreneurs and workers.
The Party signalled that the victories would translate into intensified service delivery and local development initiatives, pledging to fast-track constituency projects and strengthen collaboration between national and county leadership.
While acknowledging the vibrancy of Kenya’s democratic competition, UDA maintained an assertive stance, stating that voters are increasingly aligning with performance-based politics anchored in measurable outcomes and accountability.
For the Party’s youthful base and grassroots organisers, the message from the ballot was unmistakable: momentum belongs to those who organise, mobilise, and deliver.
As celebrations continue, UDA says its focus now shifts from campaign mode to implementation, with renewed determination to transform electoral victories into visible results on the ground.
