Inject Party leader Morara Kebaso has issued a bold call to Kenya’s Gen Z, urging them to move from digital activism to real political engagement by starting their own political parties. In a social media post on Friday, Morara offered a breakdown of what it takes to enter the country’s formal political space, stating that registering a new political party costs between Sh3 million and Sh4 million, while buying an existing one ranges between Sh10 million and Sh12 million.
“You can either register one, which will cost you around Sh3 to 4 million to complete the process, or you can buy one, which will cost you around Sh10 to 12 million,” Morara posted.
While acknowledging that the figures may seem high, he argued that they are within reach for a motivated and united youth population. “This is money that you can easily fundraise 1 bob per person,” he said, pointing to the power of collective action and grassroots mobilisation.
Morara challenged Gen Zs to stop pushing for change from the sidelines and instead begin building structured political movements capable of influencing national decisions. His comments come amid ongoing youth-led protests and increasing online activism demanding systemic change.
Though Morara has recently taken a step back from active politics citing relentless online trolling as the reason he affirmed his continued commitment to citizen empowerment. “I may have taken a step back, but I still want you to succeed because if you fix this country’s economy, I will be on the Forbes list in a minute,” he added.
His latest appeal follows a recent public defence of his reputation after facing accusations of dishonesty and betrayal from former supporters. In a now-deleted post titled “I need my life, my reputation and my future,” Morara lamented the personal cost of his political journey, saying he had sacrificed his “sweat, time, energy, brains and resources.”
Despite the setbacks, Morara’s message to Gen Z is clear: real change will not come from protests alone it must be pursued through organised, political participation.
