The reigning Ms President Nairobi was unveiled by the party during a conference held by the party's leadership on December 30, 2020. Adera is expected to face off against several other contestants especially a Jubilee candidate after the ODM party pulled out of the race to back Jubilee's candidate. KANU already has a coalition agreement with Jubilee and was widely expected to follow in ODM's footsteps in supporting the ruling coalition's candidate. Adera in her remarks pledged to work with the Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS) in delivering service for the people of Nairobi. The party further expressed their gratitude to ODM Leader Raila Odinga for pulling out of the race to allow Jubilee to determine the county's leadership.
