  ## History
  
  The party was founded in 2021 by Moses Kuria after he left the People’s Empowerment Party.
  
  In April 2022, the party faced a schism. They contested the 2022 Kenyan general election as part of Kenya Kwanza, and elected one MP. Following his nomination as a cabinet secretary, Kuria started a process of disbanding his party to join the United Democratic Alliance.
