There are no plans merge The Service Party with Deputy President William Ruto-linked United Democratic Alliance, Mwangi Kiunjuri said on Wednesday. Kiunjuri instead said his party will enter into coalitions with "like minded parties". Last week, UDA secretary general Veronica Maina announced there were plans to merge the two parties. Kiunjuri launched TSP last year, promising that it will be the alternative "vehicle for the people of Mt Kenya". The Deputy President is understood to be eyeing Mt Kenya as a preferred region to produce his running mate.
