Why David Murathe Resigned from Jubilee Party
David Murathe has resigned from his post as Jubilee Party’s interim vice-chairman, citing the conflict of interest in his bid to block Deputy President William Ruto’s 2022 presidential bid.
Mr. Murathe made the announcement on Sunday while explaining why he wants the DP to retire alongside President Uhuru Kenyatta come that year.
Mr. Murathe explained that it was no longer reasonable for him to attack Mr. Ruto as they both sit in the party’s NEC.
“I now find that it is no longer tenable to stay on as the party vice-chairman, given that I will have to sit in the same National Executive Council with a man I am taking to court to block from running for president,” he told journalists at his Garden Estate home in Nairobi.
We wish Murathe all the best!
