Integrity
Public office is a public trust. We hold our own members to that standard first.
About Us
A movement born at the grassroots
Mashinani People's Movement (MPM) exists because millions of Kenyans do the hardest work of building this nation and see the least of its rewards. We organise from the village, the estate and the ward upward.
Our story
Why the movement was formed
MPM was founded by citizens, community organisers, farmers, traders, teachers and young professionals who concluded that Kenya’s deepest problems are not a shortage of resources but a failure of representation. Decisions that shape everyday life are still made far from the people who live with the consequences.
“Mashinani” means the grassroots. It is not a slogan for us but a method: policy is drafted where people live, candidates are chosen by the branches that know them, and leaders are recalled by the same communities when they fail.
The movement is organised in branches at ward level, coordinated at constituency and county level, and governed nationally by structures drawn from those branches.
Our Vision
A just, equal and prosperous Kenya where power and opportunity begin at the grassroots.
Our Mission
To organise and empower Kenyans in every ward to claim their constitutional rights, to hold leadership accountable, and to deliver practical development that improves household incomes, health, education and dignity.
Our Motto
Haki, Usawa, Maendeleo
Justice, Equality, Development — the words carried on our seal.
Core values
The standards we hold ourselves to
Members, officials and candidates of MPM subscribe to these values as a condition of belonging.
Inclusivity
Every community, gender, faith and generation has a seat at the table.
Accountability
Leaders elected on our ticket answer to the ward that sent them.
Servant leadership
Leadership is service, not entitlement or ethnic bargaining.
Patriotism
A united Kenya, above region and tribe, is the foundation of our politics.
Non-violence
We build power through organising and the ballot, never intimidation.
Party symbol
Reading our seal
Our identity is deliberate and formal: a movement that intends to govern should look like it.
The eight-point star
A guiding star in gold — direction, hope and the promise that the movement points the same way in every corner of the Republic.
The shield
Protection of the citizen: their rights, their land, their livelihood and their vote.
The green ring
An unbroken circle of communities — the land that feeds us and the unity that binds the movement together.
