Everything you need to know about joining, membership, and Chama Cha Ujenzi's ORPP registration process.
Any Kenyan citizen aged 18 years and above who is a registered voter can join Chama Cha Ujenzi. We also welcome Kenyans in the diaspora. You must not be a member of another political party at the time of joining — if you are, you must officially resign from that party via the ORPP IPPMS portal first.
There are three ways to register:
You will need your full name, national ID number, date of birth, phone number, email address, occupation, and your county/constituency/ward of residence. No physical documents need to be uploaded — just the information from your national ID card.
Currently there is no membership fee to join Chama Cha Ujenzi. Joining is completely free during the provisional registration period. Any future subscription arrangements will be communicated transparently to all members.
Yes, but you must first resign from your current party. Kenya's Political Parties Act does not allow dual party membership. You can resign formally through the ORPP IPPMS Self-Service Portal. Once your resignation is processed, you are free to join Chama Cha Ujenzi.
Yes! Diaspora Kenyans are warmly welcomed. Use the online membership form and select "Diaspora" as your county/location. Your registration helps the party meet ORPP membership distribution requirements and contributes to the national membership drive.
Chama Cha Ujenzi was provisionally registered by the Office of the Registrar of Political Parties (ORPP) in May 2026 following the publication of a provisional registration notice in the Kenya Gazette. We are now in the 99-day window to meet full registration conditions, including achieving at least 1,000 registered members in at least 24 of Kenya's 47 counties.
Provisional registration means the party has satisfied preliminary requirements (founding documents, leadership structure, constitution, logo, bank account, etc.) and the Registrar has published a notice allowing the party to begin formal membership recruitment. The party has 99 days from the provisional registration date to achieve full registration conditions, including the minimum membership spread across counties.
Under the Political Parties Act, a party must have at least 1,000 registered members in at least 24 counties (half of Kenya's 47 counties) to qualify for full registration. Chama Cha Ujenzi is actively running membership drives in all 47 counties to build toward this target and beyond.
You can check your party membership status on the ORPP IPPMS Self-Service Portal using your national ID number. Your registration with Chama Cha Ujenzi should reflect there once it has been processed by ORPP.
We collect only what is required by the ORPP PPM1 membership form: your name, ID number, date of birth, gender, contact details, occupation, and location information (county/constituency/ward). This data is used solely for ORPP registration submission and internal party administration. We do not sell, share, or misuse your data.
Your data is handled in compliance with Kenya's Data Protection Act 2019 and the regulations of the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner (ODPC). Data is transmitted over encrypted HTTPS, stored securely, and accessible only to authorized party officials. Our Data Protection Officer can be reached at dpo@ujenzi.ke.
Yes. Under the Data Protection Act 2019, you have the right to request erasure of your personal data from our records. To do so, click the "Request Data Removal" button at the bottom of the membership form on the Join page, or email dpo@ujenzi.ke with your full name and national ID number. Requests are processed within 72 hours.

The donkey (🫏) is Chama Cha Ujenzi's official party symbol. It represents strength, humility, and resilience — qualities deeply associated with the ordinary Kenyan worker and farmer. The donkey is a beast of burden that serves without complaint, symbolising a party grounded in service to the people, the working class, youth, women, and marginalised communities.
