Sunday, January 26, 2025 - Former President Uhuru Kenyatta’s Jubilee Party has announced the candidate it will support during the 2027 Presidential election.
Speaking in Narok county on Saturday, Jubilee
Party Secretary General, Jeremiah Kioni said the party will support former
Interior Cabinet Secretary, Fred Matiangi’s presidential bid.
"We as the Jubilee Party have our own
candidate, Fred Matiang'i. He will face off with the others to ensure Ruto goes
home," Kioni stated.
"If we all agree to come together and vote,
Ruto will not win even if he appoints Kimani Ichung'wah or Kamket as IEBC
Chairperson. We must agree that all his supporters are the wrong people for
this country."
This endorsement comes amid tensions in Gusii land, where the region, which had predominantly supported the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), is now threatening to abandon the party over claims of discrimination and chart its own path.
