Sifuna’s LMM Finishes Its Nairobi NDC Meeting, Makes The Following Resolutions, Details

The Linda Mwananchi Movement has formally taken shape after delegates of the former Equitable Party approved a series of changes during a National Delegates Conference held in Nairobi on Friday, November 13, 2026.

The resolutions have marked a significant step in the political group’s transition, with the party adopting a new name, approving constitutional amendments and opening the door to coalition-building ahead of the 2027 General Election.

In a statement released by Pauline Njoroge, the Head of Communication at the party’s National Secretariat, the movement has confirmed that the delegates have ratified key decisions required to complete the transition.

The party has now officially changed its name from the Equitable Party to the Linda Mwananchi Movement.

Delegates have also approved the proposed changes to the party’s colours, symbol and headquarters, although the statement has not provided further details about the new identity.

The conference has further adopted amendments to the party constitution, alongside revisions to its nomination and election rules.

The decisions have come as political parties have increasingly positioned themselves ahead of the 2027 polls, with possible alliances and campaign strategies already taking shape.

In another major resolution, the delegates have authorised the movement to begin coalition-building talks with like-minded political parties.

That approval has given the Linda Mwananchi Movement room to explore partnerships with other political formations as it seeks to strengthen its position ahead of the next general election.

However, the statement has not named any parties involved in the proposed talks or disclosed when the negotiations are expected to begin.

The announcement has also followed public confirmation by Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna, who has welcomed the development through a social media post carrying the movement’s official hashtag.

The party has thanked delegates for endorsing the transition, saying the decisions have helped formalise its new identity and strengthen its organisational structure.

With the name change and internal amendments now approved, attention has shifted to how the movement will organise its leadership, build alliances and translate the new political platform into a national campaign ahead of 2027, as preparations for the 2027 national election have gathered further momentum.
