Karua Rebrands NARC Kenya

Martha Karua's Narc Kenya party will now be known as the People's Liberation Party (PLP) after receiving an official name change certificate from the Registrar of Political Parties.
The name change is part of Karua’s efforts to appeal to the youthful generation of GenZs, expected to influence the 2027 general election.

On Friday, the Registrar of Political Parties, Anne Nderitu, presented the legal document to Karua at the ORPP's Lion Place offices.

Nderitu commended Narc Kenya for following due process in effecting the name change in accordance with Section 20 of the Political Parties Act, 2011

In addition to the new name, Narc Kenya has also changed its party symbol, official colors, and slogan.

The party has replaced its previous colors—luminous red and white—with lilac, white, and purple. Its symbol has changed from a rose flower to a purple rose.

The new PLP slogan is "Unite" and "Liberate," replacing the former "One Kenya, One Nation, One People."

This rebranding comes just days after Karua and former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua signaled their willingness to work together.

The two leaders have spoken highly of the Gen Zs and asked the young people to register as voters.

Karua has stated that the name change reflects a generational shift in party leadership, aligning with the aspirations of young people.

She also revealed that PLP intends to sponsor radical constitutional amendments, including introducing term limits for top party leadership.
