Jubilee Party Secretary General Jeremiah Kioni has written a letter to the Registrar of Political Parties seeking to deregister Kanini Kega and Sabina Chege from the Jubilee membership register.

Kioni, allied to Uhuru, wants Sabina, the nominated MP on the Jubilee ticket, kicked out for installing herself as the acting party leader.

The National Executive Committee picked her as the acting party leader this week.

NEC picked Kioni in February as the secretary general. Kioni has protested the move as illegal.

According to Kioni, there is no such a position in the Jubilee Constitution, and therefore, Kega and Sabina have violated the party constitution by creating 'alien positions'.

"That the Honourable Sabina Wanjiru Chege has violated the Jubilee Party Constitution by usurping the powers of the National Delegates Conference by creating a non-existing position of the 'Acting Party Leader' a preserve of the National Delegates Conference," the letter reads in part.

The letter dated May 4 and received by the registrar's office on May 5, outlines at least five reasons why Sabina should be ejected from Jubilee.

"That the Honourable Sabina Wanjiru Chege has violated the party constitution by misleading the public and the Kenya National Assembly that she is now that 'Acting Party Leader," Kioni writes.

Further, he says that Sabina has contravened the Jubilee Party Political Constitution and its code of conduct by purporting to dislodge and overthrow Uhuru, from the position of the party leader, without following due process.

"This is to notify you that Honourable Sabina Wanjiru Chege who is a nominated Member of Parliament, having been sponsored by the Jubilee party, has pursuant to Section 14 of the political parties Act No. 1 of 2011 as read together with Article 6 of the Jubilee Party Constitution 2022 ceased being a member of the jubilee party for the following reasons," Kioni says.

The letter also accuses Sabina of contravening the Jubilee Party Constitution by promoting the ideologies, interests and policies of the United Democratic Alliance and its affiliates. These parties are neither part of the jubilee party nor its affiliates.
