A politician has claimed that the Jubilee party is hatching a plan to wreck the Amani National Congress (ANC).
According to ANC chairman Kelvin Lunani, Jubilee is using former ANC secretary general Godfrey Osotsi to destabilise the party so leader Musalia Mudavadi doesn't stand a chance in 2022.
In a statement, Lunani said the nominated MP is using privileges granted by his party to mount opposition at parliament using proxies.
He claimed that Jubilee's desire is to ensure that Mudavadi does not stand a chance in 2022.
“The script has all the hallmarks of how Jubilee caused instability in UDF after the 2013 election because the so-called petitioners unlawfully prefer the Registrar of Political Parties rather than reporting any grievance to the internal dispute mechanism."
This is after ANC party members filed petitions before the Registrar of Political Parties Lucy Ndung’u, seeking to quash the appointment of Barrack Muluka as the secretary general.
They have accused Mudavadi of appointing Muluka without following laid down procedures.
He further accused the former SG of subverting the party, saying he did not say why he deprived it of representation by abandoning and trading in the ANC Nairobi senator nomination ticket in the last election.
“Osotsi may have panicked after the decision of the NEC and Parliamentary Group to audit election financial records, claims of financial and integrity impropriety and malpractices by some officials during the election period," he added.
