Jubilee Deputy Secretary General Caleb Kositany escalated his feud with President Uhuru Kenyatta and Secretary General Raphael Tuju.
Speaking during a visit to Uasin Gishu County on Friday, July 17 he claimed that the president’s top political advisor was being used to siphon money by the party.
The lady, who was a director of political affairs in the retired President Mwai Kibaki’s regime rose to become Uhuru’s election strategist and presidential advisor.
Kositany alleged that in 2018, the party had withdrawn Ksh193 million but did not account for it.
He said that according to audit books at the Auditor General’s office the lady had received Ksh20 million.
“The books show she was given Ksh2 million but I believe she was given Ksh20 million, they omitted some zeros so we wouldn’t find out,” he alleged.
Kositany added that when he started questioning the party’s expenditure, the officials orchestrated to remove him.
“The process of removing the deputy secretary-general is just like removing the secretary-general. You must call for a National Delegates Conference and before that we must conduct grassroot elections,” he spoke.
He went on to criticise the partnerships that President Kenyatta had entered into with ODM, KANU, CCM and Wiper.
"We defeated them when they had consolidated into NASA but now they are dictating how Jubilee should conduct its affairs in Parliament,”
“I respect the president. I have voted for him four times. If the constitution allowed him another term maybe I would vote for him if he was still with William Ruto. We also want to be respected. Let them respect the democratic rights of Kenya,” he commented.
Kositany also faulted the conditional reopening of churches and places of worship. He stated that even if children and those above 58 years old were asked to keep of worship places, they would still interact with members of the family who attend the services.
