Meru Governor Kiraitu Murungi has challenged President Uhuru Kenyatta and his deputy William Ruto to help salvage the ailing Jubilee Party which has been limping lately.
The party has been appearing divided between the two lately, with their rival allies representing varying ideas, at times even clashing, hence Kiraitu's fears that its collapsing.
Speaking in Igembe South during the burial of Senator Mithika Linturi's father on Tuesday, the governor said that it pains him to see the party he helped birth before the 2017 polls dying.
He added that he has been silent because of the pain which comes with the feeling of being unwanted, especially after presiding over the merger of 13 parties which formed Jubilee.
"If you have observed, I have been quiet because I'm pained. I am perplexed because we are like strangers in the house we built," said the county boss who has been very silent lately.
The governor said that the party's troubles are the fault tif the two who are party leader and deputy respectively, urging them to organize a convention and give the way forward.
He bashed them "for failing to offer leadership".
He further accused the government of sidelining the region on matters development, claiming that none among the 130 projects launched in the region have been completed.
