The Jubilee Party has hinted at a possibility of locking out aspirants with pending court cases from taking part in the nominations.

The head of secretariat Raphael Tuju noted that the move is aimed at the party fielding candidates with integrity for different elective posts, the Star has reported. 

He announced that the party will be seeking the services of the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) and the Commission on University Education over the implementation of the leadership and integrity rule.

"As a party, we have decided to seek the services of the commissions to do for us due diligence. In the last election, we suffered a blow after some of our candidates were locked out at the last stage which was difficult for us to get a replacement," Tuju stated.

Under the law, all political aspirants are required to comply with Chapter Six of the Constitution before being cleared to vie.
