Today, H.E. Uhuru Kenyatta convened the first grassroots engagement meeting for the Jubilee Party in Murang’a, marking an important step in revitalizing the party’s structures across the country.

In his remarks, the former President articulated the party’s vision for the country, one anchored in unity and development, and underscored the pivotal role of the youth in shaping Kenya’s future, emphasizing that they remain at the heart of the nation’s growth and transformation agenda. He further highlighted Dr. Fred Matiang’i proven record of public service, presenting him as a capable candidate for the presidency under the Jubilee banner.

He also reminded members to pay close attention to credible and value-driven leadership, and to elect leaders capable of representing their constituents with integrity and competence at all levels. He cautioned against being swayed by politicians who may entertain crowds during campaigns but lack the depth and substance required for effective governance.

H.E. Kenyatta reiterated the importance of unity within the opposition, emphasizing that working together remains the surest path to success in the 2027 elections.

Additionally, he issued a firm reminder to Jubilee Party members especially those in the party leadership regarding discipline and decorum in public communication, cautioning those using social media to attack Rigathi Gachagua and other opposition leaders. He stated that such conduct is unacceptable and those persisting in that behaviour will have no place in the party. The President affirmed that Jubilee’s messaging must remain focused on advancing its policy agenda, strengthening grassroots engagement, and building support across the country.
