Kenya African Democratic Development Union

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Kenya African Democratic Development Union (KADDU) is a political party in Kenya.

History

[edit]

KADDU was established in 2006 by former MP Cyrus Jirongo and Mr. Humphrey Aluda. In the 2007 general elections it nominated 97 candidates, but received only 2% of the vote, winning a single seat in the 9th parliament,[1] Jirongo in Lugari. With all other parties becoming part of the coalition government, KADDU effectively became the official opposition.[2]

In 2011 Jirongo defected to the United Democratic Movement.[3] KADDU did not contest the 2013 general elections.
