After the UK visit, Gachagua is also expected to head to the United States to further strengthen the party’s financial base ahead of the polls.

During a press briefing on May 12, 2026, he said the party is actively working to reinforce its structures and position itself as a strong contender in the upcoming elections.

“This is why I will leave for the United Kingdom on Friday night… thereafter, I will come back then go to the United States again to talk to our friends and partners. We must put money together for elections, we cannot afford to fail,” he said.
