The Party of Development and Reforms (PDR), sometimes seen as the Party of Reforms and Development, was a political party in Kenya.
It officially changed its name to United Democratic Alliance (UDA) in December 2020.[1]
History
The party was established as the Party of Action (POA) in February 2012 by Hillary Yegon in order to contest the 2013 general elections.[2] It later formed an electoral pact with the Kenya National Congress (KNC) for the 2013 general elections,[3] which was formalised as the Eagle Alliance. The alliance nominated the KNC's Peter Kenneth as its presidential candidate. In the elections Kenneth finished fourth in the presidential contest with 0.6% of the vote. The Party of Action failed to win a parliament, receiving less than 0.05% of the vote.
Prior to the 2017 general elections, the party was renamed. In the elections the PDR endorsed incumbent President Uhuru Kenyatta,[4] also winning four seats in the National Assembly and one in the Senate.[5][6]
