Kenya is currently in the budget preparation season for 2026/27, although public perception leans towards the upcoming 2027 electoral campaign. Discussions are underway regarding the implications of the expiring ODM-UDA Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) and its potential impact on the broad-based government.
The nation is actively engaged in preparing the 2026/27 budget. A recent poll suggests that many Kenyans believe the country is entering the 2027 electoral campaign season rather than the budget preparation period.
A key point of discussion involves the 10-point ODM-UDA MoU, which is set to expire on Saturday, March 7. There is ongoing debate about whether the termination of this agreement will also lead to the dissolution of the current broad-based government. Further examination of this agenda is anticipated later in the week.
