About DCP

DCP is a people-driven movement established in response to the urgent call from Kenyans for a new era of leadership rooted in integrity, inclusivity, and accountability. Formed through extensive consultations with citizens from all walks of life, DCP stands as a unifying force for those who believe in a Kenya where every individual’s voice matters.

Our party was founded on the conviction that active listening and genuine engagement are the foundation of effective governance. DCP brings together patriots determined to address the nation’s most pressing challenges by placing citizens at the center of decision-making. Guided by the philosophy "Skiza Wakenya" (Listen to Kenyans), we are committed to building a government that is responsive, transparent, and truly representative of the people’s aspirations.

Our Vision

Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP) envisions a Kenya where every citizen’s voice is heard, respected, and shapes the nation’s destiny. We are committed to restoring dignity, justice, and inclusive prosperity for all Kenyans, at home and in the diaspora, by championing true participatory democracy and accountable leadership.

Our Mission

DCP’s mission is to build a government that listens, includes, and empowers every Kenyan. We believe leadership is a solemn duty to actively engage with citizens, understand their needs, and co-create solutions for social, economic, and political transformation. Our party is founded on the principle that listening to the people is not a privilege, but a right and responsibility of every leader.
