UDA Reclaims Top Spot in Latest TIFA Poll as ODM Suffers Major Drop, Sifuna’s Movement Comes Second
The United Democratic Alliance (UDA) has reclaimed its position as Kenya’s most popular political party, overtaking its competitors in the latest opinion survey by Trends and Insights For Africa (TIFA).
According to findings reported by Citizen Digital, UDA commands 25 per cent support, placing it ahead of the Linda Mwananchi Movement, associated with The Equitable Party (TEP), which has attracted 17 per cent.
The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), which has maintained a strong presence in Kenya’s political landscape for years, trails in third position with 10 per cent.
The latest rankings point to changing political preferences among Kenyans as the country gradually moves towards the 2027 General Election.
UDA’s return to the leading position comes as a boost to the ruling party, which is expected to rely on its national structures and grassroots networks to strengthen its support ahead of the next election.
However, the emergence of Linda Mwananchi Movement in second place is among the notable developments in the survey. The political outfit, linked to Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna, appears to be attracting considerable attention as it seeks to establish itself as an alternative political force.
Its 17 per cent rating puts it seven percentage points ahead of ODM, raising questions about the party's position amid ongoing internal political disagreements and shifting alliances.
ODM's third-place ranking at 10 per cent also presents a significant challenge for the party as it seeks to maintain its influence and political relevance.
With the 2027 elections approaching, the latest findings are likely to generate fresh debate among political leaders and supporters.
