Former Meru Governor Peter Munya has said that it is illegal for former President Mwai Kibaki to be recognized as the Party of National Unity leader.

Munya has said that he will move to court and cite the Registrar of Political Parties for contempt if the notice is not withdrawn.

Last week, the registrar, Ms Lucy Ndung’u, gazetted Mr Kibaki as PNU leader alongside other former officials.

 “Our lawyers wrote to the registrar of political parties on Monday pointing out that a court order is in place stopping the ruling of the tribunal. We gave her 48 hours to correct the same with a new gazette. Our lawyer is moving to court on Thursday to cite her for contempt of she does not act by the closure of business Wednesday,” Mr Munya said.
