The Uhuru Kenyatta-led Jubilee party has announced its new appointees to its National Executive Council (NEC) board.
During a National Delegates Conference (NDC) held at the Ngong Racecourse on Monday, Jubilee party Secretary General Jeremiah Kioni noted that the party has opted to make the changes after it observed that some of its members have proved to be disloyal to the party.
Kioni stated that on April 28, 2023, a NEC meeting was convened and the members sitting on the board were a no-show.
It was in that meeting, Kioni added, where they resolved that the positions ought to be filled with loyal, faithful and trustworthy members who are in support of the party’s interests.
“They are holding the positions and they have shown that their loyalty is not with us but with others,” he said.
The outgoing members, according to Kioni, have either shown allegiance to other parties, resigned from the positions, or have been appointed to other commissions.
Some of the outgoing NEC members are Jimmy Angwenyi, Naomi Shaban, Nelson Nzuya, Joshua Kuttuny, Mutava Musymi and Kanini Kega.
Others are Sabina Chege, Rachel Nyamai, Advice Mundalo, Joel Kibe and Wangoi Gichuru.
The aforesaid persons will be replaced with Beatrice Gambo, Maoka Maore, Joseph Manje, Saitoti Torome, Yassin Nur and blogger Pauline Njoroge.
Others new entrants are Jamleck Kamau, Maison Lechome, Agnes Nthumbi (Youth League) Anthony Manyara, Nderitu Mureithi and Amina Ugdon Siyad (Parliamentary Secretary).
Kioni further insisted that all party members who have promoted ideals of other parties have been deregistered from the party membership roll and that Jubilee Party remains a constituent member of Azimio la Umona Coalition Political Party.
