The United Democratic Alliance (UDA) has summoned Nominated Senator Gloria Orwoba, accusing her of contravening the party’s code of conduct.

In a letter dated 7th May, 2025 and signed by UDA Disciplinary Committee Chairperson Charles Njenga, the ruling party has highlighted three instances that it feels was against the party’s ideals.

In the first instance, UDA says Senator Orwoba attending the welcoming of Fred Matiang’i back to the country at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) on 17th April, 2025.

The President William Ruto-led party also cites the decision by Orwoba to attend Matiang’i’s home-coming ceremony at Gusii Stadium, Kisii Town, on 2nd May, 2025 warrants a summoning.

Lastly but not least, the party has faulted Senator Orwoba over her interview on Spice FM on 22nd April, 2025.

“Your participation and utterances in the above stated events clearly demonstrates instances and proof of allegiance to another political movement, conduct unbecoming and disloyalty to the United Democratic Alliance Party (hereafter the party) and which nominated you to the office and position of Senator in the Senate of the Republic of Kenya,” the letter reads in part.

Orwoba’s activities which are political in nature, the party says “are further in breach of the party’s Code of Conduct which you subscribed to and constitute gross misconduct in the contemplation of the Constitution of the party.”

The party now wants the lawmaker to appear before the Disciplinary Committee on the 16th May 2025 at
9am at the Hustler Plaza, 4th Floor, Board Room, “to show cause why appropriate disciplinary action should not be taken against you and further why such sanctions as are provided for in the party’s Constitution, should not be imposed against you.”
