A day after retired President Uhuru Kenyatta resigned as chairman of the Azimio Coalition, the Jubilee Party, which he led until recently, also wants out of the coalition. In an exclusive interview with NTV, Jubilee Deputy Leader Jeremiah Kioni says the coalition, now rebranding as the Ukombozi Alliance, was detrimental to Jubilee’s national presence in 2022, arguing that the party has little to gain from staying in Azimio next year and should instead seek a new coalition.
