Jubilee Secretary General Raphael Tuju on Thursday divulged that the media was involved in a plot against President Uhuru Kenyatta's regime adding that the fourth estate was an extension of the opposition.
Speaking during an interview with BBC's HARDtalk, Tuju explained that the media was used in the advancement of National Super Alliance (NASA)'s agenda while to propelling propaganda against the Jubilee regime.
He also faulted the Judiciary revealing that judges' rulings were driven by ethnic inclinations rather than the constitution.

"We have a judiciary which is a reflection of the society but judges make decisions based on ethnic loyalties as opposed to the law.
"So when you have a media that is an extension of the opposition propaganda, and judges who have more loyalties to their tribes than the law, we have more complex matters to deal with compared to what you have to deal with in London," he conveyed.
This, he said was the reason why the government shutdown KTN, NTV and Citizen TV stations after they aired Raila Odinga's swearing-in ceremony that took place on January 30th.
He added that the there was more evidence that the media was siding with the opposition conveying that there were plans made against Kenyatta's administration
"We have evidence ... it is much deeper than that," he stated not giving more information on the same.
Tuju further stated that despite being independent for 50 years and having many tribes, the country was lucky to not have plunged into a serious civil war.
"We are not a nation-state. Kenya has 42 different nationalities. We are trying to forge a country out of a geographical phenomenon. It is a country that has a high potential of breaking into civil strike and war.
"In fact, it is just a miracle that 50 years down the line, we haven't experienced a major breakdown of law and order," he told BBC.
