National Rainbow Coalition – Kenya

[1] The party, though months old, captured 3 parliamentary seats (Nakuru Town, Saku and North Horr) and 2 Civic seats in the by-elections of 24 July 2006 that was seen as a litmus test for the upcoming general elections for which the new party was planned to play a major role in securing reelection for president Mwai Kibaki.

Its candidates William Kariuki, Hussein Sasura and Ukur Yattani Kanacho won the Constituencies of Nakuru Town, Saku and North Horr.

[2] Incumbent president Mwai Kibaki was expected to receive the party's nomination for another 5-year term.

Thus a few months before the 2007 election, a new coalition by the name of Party of National Unity (PNU) was formed of which NARC-Kenya became a part.

Narc-Kenya opted to continue registering members in its own right electing Martha Karua as party leader in November 2008.
