County Politics, News 07:29

Tuesday September 4, 2018 - Disquiet is growing
within Jubilee Party after some legislators from Rift Valley called for
grassroot elections.
Speaking yesterday, the
legislators said this would open up space for members to
participate in party activities while strengthening it.
They noted that
the absence of elected party officials had made it almost impossible for them
to push the Government’s agenda in both the Senate and National Assembly.
"For
instance, we do not know the position of the Government on many issues,
including implementation of the 16 per cent VAT on fuel,” said Nakuru Town East
MP, David Gikaria.
Similar sentiments
were echoed by Molo MP, Kimani Kuria, who said the grassroot elections were
long overdue.
"Our
counterparts in the Opposition have elected party officials with clear roles.”
“This has proved
effective at both levels of Parliament.”
“Time has come for
Jubilee to elect officials to end this drama.”
“If we borrow a
leaf from ODM (Orange Democratic Movement), they have a party chairman who is
an elected MP.”
“This has made it
possible for them to push their agenda in the House,” said Kuria.
