Former Mukurweini Member of Parliament Kabando Wa Kabando has urged pro-change movements across the country to reject retaliatory violence and commit to peaceful political action.
The politician asserted that building a cohesive and integrative Kenya requires a steady foundation grounded in peace, justice, and nonviolence.
The commentary comes amid heightened political discussions surrounding democratic reforms, electoral readiness, and national stability ahead of the 2027 General Election.
Kabando emphasized that political transformation must be pursued through democratic channels rather than physical confrontations or violent retaliation against state organs or political opponents.
Addressing the current political climate, the former lawmaker expressed firm confidence that President William Ruto will face defeat at the ballot box.
He contended that growing public dissatisfaction across various segments of society—including within critical institutions such as the police force and the armed forces—signals broad-based opposition to the administration’s performance.
According to Kabando, widespread socio-economic grievances among citizens and public servants alike have created an overarching desire for political leadership change that does not depend on violence to manifest.
Advocating for democratic maturity, Kabando insisted that the path toward systemic change must prioritize institution building, strict constitutional adherence, and popular mobilization.
He argued that a disciplined, nonviolent majority remains the most potent instrument for democratic accountability.
The remarks highlight ongoing efforts within opposition circles to align reform strategies while maintaining civil order. Kabando called upon progressive forces to unify around common national values, avoid destructive provocations, and focus on delivering a peaceful transition through broad democratic participation.
