On October 22, 2019, Jubilee Party Secretary General Raphael Tuju announced changes to the party's membership on the Nairobi County Assembly Service Board.
According to Tuju, the party nominated Maringo Hamza MCA Mark Ndung'u to the Board, replacing Majority Leader Hassan Abdi Guyo.
The move comes less than a week after Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) nominated Nairobi West Ward MCA Maurice Gari to the Board.
ODM's nomination was communicated by the party's Secretary-General Edwin Sifuna, who said the party was seeking to address the crisis in leadership at the City Assembly.
"Given the time imperatives you are facing, we hereby nominate Hon. Mark Ndung'u Ng'ang'a, MCA for Maringo Hamza Ward to serve on the board until such a time that we will communicate the final leadership list," said Tuju in the letter dated October 22, 2019.
The Nairobi County Assembly Service Board is composed of six members, including the Speaker, two members nominated by major coalitions, the Clerk, and two members representing the public.
The Clerk serves as the secretary or chief executive officer to the board, while the Speaker is the chairperson.
