The Jubilee Party’s National Delegates Conference (NDC) has made a significant decision to expel 11 members, including Nominated MP Sabina Chege and East African Legislative Assembly (EALA) MP Kanini Kega.
The move came after the two members were found to be inciting rebellion within the party and attempting to sell it to the Kenya Kwanza Coalition.
Sabina Chege, who was nominated to the National Assembly, and Kanini Kega, who was nominated to the East African Legislative Assembly, allegedly participated in a series of activities aimed at undermining the Jubilee Party.
They reportedly attended meetings convened by President William Ruto at State House, as well as a Kenya Kwanza prayer meeting in Nakuru, where they claimed that Jubilee was now a part of the Kenya Kwanza Coalition and distanced themselves from the Azimio La Umoja party.
