Wycliffe Musalia Mudavadi (born 21 September 1960) is a Kenyan politician and land economist who is currently serving as Prime Cabinet Secretary of Kenya, and since 2023, in an expanded role of Foreign & Diaspora Affairs Minister of Kenya.[1] He is a former party leader of the Amani National Congress (ANC), one of the founding political parties, of the Kenya Kwanza alliance.
After the death of his father Moses Mudavadi in 1989, Mudavadi joined politics contesting in the by-election in Sabatia Constituency, a position he held until 2013. Mudavadi served as the seventh Vice-President of Kenya in 2002 under the presidency of Daniel arap Moi. He held the position of Deputy Prime Minister (2008–2013) and Minister of Local Government (2008–2012), in the coalition government of Mwai Kibaki and Raila Odinga. In May 2012, Mudavadi resigned from his role as Minister of Local Government to contest for the presidency in the 2013 Kenyan general election where he finished third. He was the deputy party leader of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) (2005–2012) and Party Leader of the United Democratic Forum Party (UDF) from May 2012 to July 2015.[2]
