On Friday, DP Ruto protested changes made in Jubilee Party’s National Management Committee (NMC) saying that the changes are fraudulent.
In a tweet, the DP who is Jubilee’s deputy party leader accused party officials he did not name, of trying to impose illegal changes within the party.
He went on to say that he had written to the registrar of political parties protesting the changes and Jubilee members should know that the matter was being handled.
“As Kenyans are focused on the Covid-19 pandemic, some shadowy characters are attempting to FRAUDULENTLY institute ILLEGAL changes in officials of Jubilee party. As deputy leader I have alerted the registrar of the fraud. Party members should know that the matter is being handled,” said DP Ruto.
