Meru Woman Representative Florence Kajuju now wants politicians and aspirants fueling chaos in Jubilee Party (JP) to be disqualified from seeking elective seats.
Kajuju claims that recent chaos witnessed in the election of Jubilee Party Board officials in some counties is tainting the party negatively.
Speaking to journalists in Meru Town on Tuesday, Kajuju said that Jubilee is not associated with hooliganism adding that action has to be taken against perpetrators of violence.
“People who perpetrate violence must be dealt with accordingly and as Jubilee we should not tolerate any kind of hooliganism,” she said as quoted by the Star.
The Meru Woman Representative urged aspirants eyeing seats on JP ticket to exercise peace and tolerance ahead of the party nominations and subsequent August 8 polls.
She said that the party (JP) has guaranteed fair and credible nominations and aspirants should remain peaceful.
Kajuju warned that the opposition might use the chaos and violence witnessed in JP to campaign against President Uhuru Kenyatta.
The Meru Woman Representative said that Jubilee is focused on uniting the country. She exuded confidence that the party will retain power in the August polls.
Election of JP officials in some counties has been marred with violence.
Murang’a, Nairobi, Nakuru and Kirinyaga counties reported chaos during the election of Jubilee Party Board members.
Jubilee Party top officials in the affected counties have since been summoned to explin why action should not be taken against them for failing to prevent the chaos.
The confusion in Jubilee Party according to political analysts forced President Uhuru Kenyatta to cancel two campaign tours in Meru and Western Kenya which he had scheduled for this week.
