The Chama Cha Uzalendo (lit. 'Patriotic Party', CCU) is a Kenyan political party established in 2004.
2007 general election
Wavinya Ndeti was elected to Parliament as the first woman to ever represent the Kathiani constituency.[6] Gitobu Imanyara was elected to represent the Central Imenti constituency.[7]
2017 general election
Ahead of the 2017 election, CCU joined the Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (CORD) in July 2016; in 2017, most CORD members transitioned into the National Super Alliance coalition.[8] David Mwalika Mboni was elected to represent Kitui County, the sole CCU member to have a seat in the National Assembly.[9]
2021 Machakos Senate race
After CCU senator Boniface Kabaka's death in December 2020, the Senate seat for Machakos County became available.[10] CCU candidate Lily Nduku Mwanzia withdrew from the race due to financial constraints.[11]
