Uhuru convenes the Jubilee delegates convention amid party wrangles to review formulate and approve policies
Uhuru convenes the Jubilee delegates convention amid party wrangles to review formulate and approve policies.
Jubilee Party leader and former President Uhuru Kenyatta has convened a delegates convention on May 22 at the Bomas of Kenya.
The Jubilee party will meet to discuss, draft, and ratify party policies.
Uhuru stated in a gazette notice that the National Executive Committee will present a status report to them during the convention.
“Pursuant to articles 8.1 and 10.1 of the Jubilee Party Constitution, notice is hereby issued for Special National Delegates Convention to be held on the 22 of May 2023,” the notice read.
During the meeting, the Jubilee party will consider and approve any other matters.
The Jubilee party has recently made headlines after wrangles were witnessed over the party leadership.
Eala MP Kanini Kega and embattled Jubilee secretary general Jeremiah Kioni have both laid claims on the leadership of the Jubilee party.
This is despite the Political Parties Tribunal ruling that Kega was lawfully installed as the party’s SG.
This was decided at a meeting convened in Naivasha on February 10.

It said the resolution to suspend Kioni reached at the National Executive Committee meeting still stands and referred Kioni to the party’s internal dispute resolution mechanism to address his opposition to Kega’s takeover.
Retired President Uhuru Kenyatta, who visited Jubilee headquarters amid wrangles said they were going to solve the party’s issues internally.
“We have our mechanisms as a political party with which to solve our problems and we shall solve and we shall have our meetings and the party’s membership will decide the party’s future,” he said.
“We don’t need to be governed or be pushed by police. We will peacefully make our decisions because we are peaceful people who wish to live in a peaceful country.”
