A section of Coast Azimio leaders has joined the William Ruto-led Kenya Kwanza Alliance. 

Deputy President William Ruto-led Kenya Kwanza Alliance has received a big boost after a section of Coast Azimio leaders joined the political outfit.

The DP on Monday, May 9 welcomed the Kilifi County Assembly speaker, Jimmy Kahindi, to the Kenya Kwanza which was officially registered as a coalition on Sunday.

Dr. Ruto also received former ODM governor aspirant Suleiman Shabhal's running mate Selina Maitha and her key aides, who officially joined Kenya Kwanza.

The DP said that the move by the leaders will now strengthen the coalition’s grassroots support.

“The Kenya Kwanza, Mombasa team has received a big boost. Former ODM governor aspirant Suleiman Shabhal's running mate Selina Maitha and his key lieutenants joined our team to strengthen our coalition grassroots support and bring genuine change to Mombasa,” the DP tweeted.

The move comes just hours after Dr. Alfred Mutua-led Maendeleo Chap Chap officially ditched the Raila Odinga-led Azimio for Kenya Kwanza.

MCC was one of the constituent parties of the Azimio coalition party. Speaking after making the move, Mutua said that Azimio played his party.

"Unlike Azimio, here is a document we signed and we know its content. Azimio played us and sneaked a document on zoning. They have been doing nothing but managing us," he said.
