Jubilee Party, on Friday, May 5, applied to deregister the East African Legislative Assembly (MP) Kanini Kega and Nominated Member of Parliament Sabina Chege from the political outfit.
In a four-page letter, the Jubilee Party requested Registrar Of Political Parties Ann Nderitu to consider striking out the names of Kega and Sabina since they were in violation of the Constitution.
The Retired President Uhuru Kenyatta's led party decided to terminate the membership of the two after they attempted to oust the Party Leader.
Secretary-General Jeremiah Kioni copied Kega and Sabina in the letter, informing them that their conducts were unattainable within the Jubilee Party.
"This is to notify you that Honourable Kanini Kega has pursuant to Section 14 of the political parties Act No. 1 of 2011 as read together with Article 6 of the Jubilee Party Constitution ceased from being a member of the Jubilee party," Kioni stated.
Kioni informed Kega that he was sent away for perpetual promoting of the ideologies, interests and policies of the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) and its affiliates.
Jubilee Party noted that Kega's actions amounted to a violation of the law since their party did not have any coalition agreement with the UDA Party.
"Honourable Kanini Kega has contravened the party's constitution and code of conduct by purporting to dislodge and/or overthrow the Jubilee Party leader herein being His Excellency Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta without following the due process as established under the Jubilee Constitution.
The outfit also claimed that Kanini Kega had contravened the Jubilee Party Constitution by usurping the powers of the National Delegate Conference by conferring the Honourable Sabina Wanjiru Chege the position of Acting Party Leader.
"Kanini Kega has contravened the Jubilee's Party Constitution by conferring unto himself the position of the Secretary-General without following the due process as laid down under the Jubilee Party Constitution," read part of the statement.
The same allegations were also levelled against Sabina Chege, who on Thursday, May 4, claimed to be the substantive Leader of the Jubilee Party in an acting capacity.
"Honourable Sabina Wanjiru Chege has violated the Jubilee Party Constitution by usurping the powers of the National Delegates Conference by creating a non-existing position of the 'Acting Party Leader' a preserve of the National Delegates Conference," read part of the letter.
Kioni further accused Sabina of misleading the public and the Kenya National Assembly that she was the Acting Party Leader.
Jubilee Fails to Dewhip Sabina Chege
On Thursday, May 4, National Assembly Speaker, Moses Wetangula, announced that Azimio La Umoja was justified in dewhipping Sabina Chege as deputy minority whip, but erred while tabling her ouster motion.
Wetangula stated that Jubilee and Azimio failed to list Sabina Chege's immediate replacement. He thus offered the minority side 30 days to rectify their blunder.
On the ouster of Uhuru as Jubilee party and subsequent replacement with Sabina Chege, Wetangula argued that he could not rule on the matter as it was outside his jurisdiction.
Kega, he stated, wrote a letter to the Office of the Registrar of Political Parties seeking clarification on the changes. The ORPP, he added, was constitutionally mandated to address the matter.
