Rebel Jubilee Party group led by nominated Member of Parliament Sabina Chege on Monday endorsed the national dialogue proposed by President William Ruto.
The group further advocated for appointments in cabinet and other government institutions that would mirror a national outlook.
In a statement signed by Eldas MP Adan Keynan who is the Acting Deputy National Chairman and Secretary, the group remarked that this was what the country needed following anti-government protests led by Gen Z.
“On behalf of the Jubilee Party fraternity and the entire membership, we unequivocally and firmly endorse the national dialogue initiative and the subsequent formation of a broad-based and all-inclusive Government,” the statement read in part.
“This endeavour is paramount in cultivating peace, unity and national cohesion that transcend narrow political interests and defining the welfare and state of our nation as the top priority and a subject of utmost importance.”
Despite the opposition from a section of Kenyans on the idea of dialogue, the Party claimed that the process would address challenges affecting the country currently.
Keynan further remarked that this was the only route that the nation would work towards sustainable solutions that would benefit the whole country.
“We acknowledge the critical importance of collaboration and the necessity of a united front in achieving our collective objectives as a nation,” he added.
The breakaway group presented its willingness to take part in the dialogue process and subsequent coalition government formation.
“The Jubilee Party remains resolute as a formidable and integral player committed to fostering harmony, setting a mark in constructing bridges of brotherhood and promoting the stability of our motherland,” the Party announced its position.
President William Ruto on Sunday while attending a church service in Nyandarua County hinted that he would form a government of national unity.
This followed his move to dismiss the entire cabinet citing the need to operate a leaner and more effective team.
The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) has already stated the opposition party would take part in the national dialogue but refuted claims the outfit would form part of Ruto’s government.
