On August 10, 2020, the Jubilee Party headquarters in Nairobi was at the center of reports that Vice-Chair David Murathe had resigned.
However, the party's Director of Communications, Albert Memusi, swiftly refuted the claims, stating that Murathe remains a bonafide official.
"It has come to our attention that there are reports circulating on social media alleging that the Jubilee Party Vice-Chair, Hon. David Murathe has resigned," Memusi said in a statement.
"We would like to clarify that such reports are false. Hon. David Murathe remains our able Vice-Chair and continues to carry out his duties in that capacity, working diligently to fulfill his mandate as provided for in the Party Constitution," the statement read.
The party emphasized that any communication about changes affecting the leadership is through the official party organs.
"We urge members of the public to treat any documents, reports or communication purporting to convey his resignation with the contempt they deserve," Memusi said.
The statement clarified that any official communication about changes in the Jubilee Party leadership will be communicated through the official Party organs, as is the norm, and as is articulated in the Jubilee Party Constitution.
Memusi assured that the Jubilee agenda will not be derailed, and the party remains focused on fulfilling the pledges made to the people of Kenya.
