Nairobi – Saboti Member of Parliament Hon. Caleb Amisi has hailed the People’s Renaissance Movement Party (PM) as the only political outfit in Kenya’s history of multipartism to follow every rule of constitutionalism, from inception to the ballot.
The remarks follow a major milestone for the party. In a letter dated 30th October 2026 (Ref: RPP/FRP/0104 Vol III (35)), the Office of the Registrar of Political Parties (ORPP) wrote to the party’s Secretary General confirming certification of its Election and Nomination Rules. The letter, signed by Registrar of Political Parties and CEO J. C. Lorionokou, attached certified copies of the rules in line with Section 27(1A) of the Elections Act, CAP 7.
The Registrar directed the party to submit the certified rules to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) on or before Friday, 6th November 2026. The ORPP also thanked the party for its continued cooperation, a signal of the party’s compliance with the legal framework governing political parties.
“With the certification of our election and nomination rules, we are now set to field candidates from President to MCA,” Hon. Amisi said, noting that the approval clears a key legal hurdle ahead of the 2027 General Election.
The legislator emphasised that PM stands apart from other parties because of its foundations. According to him, it is the only party registered from the very beginning with a clear ideology, a “Big Five” manifesto, and a membership that is tribeless and driven by young Kenyans. He contrasted this with political formations often accused of being built around ethnic kingpins and regional bargaining.
“This is a party of ideas, not of tribes,” Amisi said, adding that its young membership reflects a generational shift in Kenyan politics, where citizens are increasingly demanding issue-based leadership, accountability and opportunity.
Political observers note that adherence to the Elections Act and the Political Parties Act is critical, as parties that fail to submit nomination rules or conduct credible primaries risk disputes and disqualification of candidates. By securing certification early, PM positions itself to avoid the legal wrangles that have dogged parties during previous nomination exercises.
The Registrar’s deadline of 6th November means the party’s officials must now move quickly to lodge the documents with the IEBC, a step that formalises its readiness for the nomination and campaign period.
Amisi urged supporters, especially young people, to register as voters, join the party and prepare to take part in nominations at all levels, from the presidency to the ward.
He closed with the party’s rallying call: “Tuko tayari. Mabadiliko ni sasa, kama si sasa ni sasa hivi.”
With certification secured, the PM Party says it is ready to take its message of constitutionalism, ideology and youth-driven change to the ballot.
