The two leaders joined hands in March 2018 and have since been working together, pushing for radical changes.

Abdullahi now says that the famous handshake could have dismantled the ruling party which scored impressively in 2017.

He says the party no longer respects the rule of law and the constitution due to the partnership they made with Odinga's party.

"JUBILEE was the party for the RULE of LAW and CONSTITUTIONALISM...until it met the HANDSHAKE and BBI...the rest is History," he said.

Jubilee is currently preparing for party polls scheduled for March this year. Deputy President William Ruto on Thursday met leaders from Taita Taveta to plan for the polls.

He is also said to have told the leaders to fully support the BBI report. 

“As party leadership, we have decided to support the BBI report to the letter. All party officials should also follow suit,” he told those present at the meeting.

He added: “I have come here to meet you so that we can strategise together on how to conduct peaceful party elections come March this year. We want the party to unveil its office bearers to propel the party to greater heights of development in future,” the DP told the leaders.
