Malala suggested that Western Kenya support Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna in the 2027 General Election, Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi in 2032, and National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula in 2037.
He argued that the region should look beyond individual elections and develop a sustained strategy aimed at strengthening its influence in national politics.
His proposal comes as political activity intensifies across Western Kenya, with leaders positioning themselves and building alliances ahead of the 2027 polls.
Sifuna has recently gained prominence through the Linda Mwananchi movement, which has been holding rallies in various parts of the country.

Sifuna has recently gained prominence through the Linda Mwananchi movement, which has been holding rallies in various parts of the country.
On Sunday, August 16, the movement held a major political gathering in Homa Bay amid growing political tensions in the region.
Mudavadi, a key figure in President William Ruto’s administration, also remains active politically. On Sunday, he launched the Magharibi Movement, an initiative focused on uniting Western Kenya, encouraging voter registration and backing Ruto ahead of the 2027 election.
Wetang’ula, meanwhile, continues to wield considerable influence in the region as Speaker of the National Assembly.
Malala’s proposed succession plan has sparked discussion over whether Western Kenya can establish a unified political strategy and sustain it through several election cycles.
However, Kenya’s political alliances frequently shift in response to national interests, personalities and emerging developments. With the 2027 election still ahead, the eventual political alignments could change significantly.
For now, Malala’s remarks have added another dimension to the debate over Western Kenya’s political future, as leaders and communities continue to weigh their options ahead of the next General Election.
