“Mess with Someone Else But Not Me” Uhuru Fires Shot At Jubilee Rebels
Former President Uhuru Kenyatta on Monday, May 22, cracked the whip on errant members who he claimed were disloyal to the party.
Speaking at Ngong Racecourse during the party’s National Delegates Convention (NDC), Uhuru noted that such members contravened the party constitution by promoting the agenda of other political parties outside the Azimio la Umoja coalition.
Through Jubilee’s Secretary-General Jeremiah Kioni, the party leader kicked out the following members from their various positions:
Jimmy Angweny
Former Buuri MP Boniface Kinoti Gatobu
Naomi ShabanNelson Dzuya
Joshua Kutuny
Mutava Musyimi
Rachael Nyamaye
Advice Mundalo
Executive Director Wambui Gichuru
Joel Kibe and
East African Legislative Assembly MP Kanini Kega.
Rachael Nyamaye, Advice Mundalo, Executive Director Wambui Gichuru and Joel Kib were also not spared.
Replacements
The Jubilee Party proposed the following names:
Deputy party leader strategy – Beatrice Gambo
Deputy party leader operations – Maoka Maore
Deputy party leader programs – Joseph Manje
Deputy party leader outreach – Kados Muiruri
Chairman – Saitoti Torome (former PS)
Deputy Sec Gen – Yasir Noor

National Director of Elections – Jamleck Kamau
Women’s League National Chairperson – Maison Leshomo
Youth league, National chairperson – Agnes Thumbi
Youth Secretariat Coordinator – Anthony Manyara
Business Council – Nderitu Mureithi
Parliamentary Secretary – Amina Siyad
“All Jubilee members who openly promoted the policies of other parties outside of Azimio coalition be deemed to have ceased from Jubilee and be removed from the Register of members,” Kioni stated.
While delivering his speech, Uhuru read the riot act to the errant members and affirmed that they did not represent the will of the majority within the party.
“Those who got the few positions Jubilee had to share are now telling us they will give the party direction. No, their job is to stand firm and defend Jubilee’s manifesto or step aside and give us a chance to select replacements,” Uhuru stated.
