Mwakenyais a radical political organisation formed in 1979 in opposition to the Kenya regime of President Daniel Arap Moi. It operated underground and in exile. Unlike other opponents of the ruling party, the Kenya African National Union (KANU), it declined to operate openly and participate in the electoral process in 1992. It issued the following statement in May 1994 to explain its position. We invite responses by Kenyans who have chosen to participate in open party politics.
