Announcing his election, Mwangi described the outcome as a collective victory for Kenyans seeking a different brand of politics centered on accountability, inclusion and public service.

“This victory is not about one individual. It is about all of us who believe Kenya deserves better,” Mwangi said after the election.

“We now have the opportunity to build a party that listens, that includes, and that works for every Kenyan — regardless of where they come from, what they believe, or who they voted for in the past.”

Mwangi said the party’s immediate focus would be on building grassroots structures across the country, recruiting members and nurturing what he described as principled leadership capable of restoring public confidence in politics.

“The work begins now. We must build strong structures, nurture principled leadership, and restore faith in politics as a force for public service,” he said.

He thanked delegates who travelled from different parts of the country to participate in the conference and pledged to lead a party that reflects the aspirations of ordinary Kenyans.
