Kenya needs only two strong political parties

The political environment in Kenya has changed over the years since the introduction of multi-party democracy in 1991. Today, the country has over 100 registered political parties.

However, there are concerns that many of these parties are not adding real value to the growth of democracy in Kenya. Politicians are using parties to divide Kenyans along tribal lines. That is why every region has its own political party. In most cases, all you need is to be nominated by a party in its stronghold and the election will be a walk in the park for you.
