History

Established in 1997,[1] the party joined the National Convergence "Kwa Na Kwa" alliance for the 2005 general elections.[2] The alliance won 42 seats, of which the PAD won two.[2] Several Kwa Na Kwa factions merged into a single political party in August 2009, but the PAD remained a separate party.

In 2010 the party joined the Presidential Majority alliance in preparation for the 2011 general elections.[3] The PAD nominated 19 candidates for the 105 seats in the National Assembly,[4] winning three of the alliance's 11 seats.
