Moses Kuria cabinet nominee for Trade and Industry has dissolved his Chama cha Kazi party.

Chama Cha Kazi party through a notice signed by the executive invited members to submit their views either in favor or in contradiction of the proposed merger.

Chairman James Kogi, Secretary General James Nage, and Executive Director Philip Muchiri have given members three weeks to tender in their submissions on the way forward.

President Ruto plans to have all affiliate parties be joined under one umbrella that is the UDA party. All politicians that will hold public offices are also supposed to fold up their political parties and join the UDA.

Article 77 of the constitution bars a state officer from holding office in a political party.

Politicians that are set to hold government jobs are required by law to dissociate themselves from political party offices.

"Chama Cha Kazi would like to issue notice to all the members under and by Article 10.0.1 (b) of the Chama Cha Kazi Constitution of the decision to merge Chama Cha Kazi with the United Democratic Alliance.” read the notice.

If members agree to the proposed merger, the registrar of the political parties shall then gazette the dissolution of the Chama cha Kazi party within seven days.

After Chama Cha Kazi is dissolved it practically loses its identity and is stripped of its logo, slogan, and symbols, and the name is also deregistered.

However, the identity of the dissolved party shall not be available for any person contesting in the next election.

The assets, records, liabilities, assets, and obligations of the dissolved party will then be transferred to the Political Parties Fund under section 25 of the Act.

Other politicians that will be affected by this constitutional requirement include Musalia Mudavadi, nominee for chief cabinet minister, former national assembly speaker Justin Muturi of Democratic Party, Alfred Mutua of Maendeleo Chap Chap, and Eliud Owalo deputy secretary of UDA.

Critics have also told off the Ruto administration of trying to bring back the one-party rule that was popular during the Moi era by wooing members elected on other party tickets to join UDA.
