The second day of the tour saw the party engage residents across multiple towns as it ramps up preparations for the 2027 general elections.
Day Two Itinerary
- The day began in Rongai town, where the team held grassroots mobilisation activities.
- Following Rongai, the delegation proceeded to Molo, engaging local leaders and communities.
- Next stops included Elburgon town and Njoro Posta, extending the party’s reach within Nakuru County.
- The tour concluded in Nakuru town with the inauguration of a new DCP office, designed to serve as a coordination hub for county-wide party activities.
This office marks the second DCP establishment in Nakuru County during the two-day tour, following the opening of a DCP office in Naivasha the previous day. The party’s leadership, including allied politicians and local coordinators, has been actively building grassroots structures through public engagements and local meetings.
Strategic Expansion Ahead of 2027
DCP’s intensified presence in Nakuru reflects its broader strategy to establish a national footprint. The party plans to field candidates in all 47 counties, signaling ambitions beyond its traditional strongholds.
Gachagua has emphasized positioning DCP as a nationwide political force, leveraging public meetings and office networks to strengthen organisational capacity ahead of the upcoming polls.
Nakuru remains a key political battleground due to its sizeable and diverse electorate, making the county a focal point for DCP’s mobilisation drive.
As the tour progresses, Gachagua and his team are expected to sustain engagement with local residents and leaders, aiming to consolidate the party’s influence and support base across the region.
