Farmers Party Notice Of Intention To Exit From The Kenya Kwanza Coalition

We refer to the above subject matter. On 23rd March 2022, Farmers Party entered into a Coalition Agreement with like-minded parties under the Kenya Kwanza Coalition. We did so in good faith, with a shared vision of empowering our farmers, guaranteeing fair prices for their produce under MGR, and uplifting the living standards of ordinary Kenyans through a principled, people-centered economic transformation.

Our belief in the binding commitments of the Coalition's manifesto guided our participation. However, it is with deep regret that we note a consistent pattern of dishonesty, political infidelity, and outright disregard for both the Constitution of Kenya (2010) and the spirit of our Coalition Agreement.

The recent unilateral signing of a Broad-Based Government Agreement between the Kenya Kwanza Coalition and the ODM Party - without consultation or involvement of the Kenya Kwanza constituent parties such as ours - is the final confirmation of the political conmanship that has come to define the coalition. This move not only violates the trust upon which our coalition was founded, but also undermines the principles of inclusivity, transparency, and mutual respect.

Accordingly, the National Executive Committee of the Farmers Party met on 7th April 2025 and unanimously resolved on the subject matter. Therefore, Farmers Party hereby issues a thirty (30) day notice of intention to exit the Kenya Kwanza Coalition, pursuant to Clause 8 (Termination) of the Coalition Agreement.

This notice takes effect from the date of this letter.

Yours faithfully,
SIMON KAMANGU
Secretary General, Farmers Party
