Jubilee Party’s Fate Hangs in Balance as Court Set to Rule on Ownership Dispute

The High Court in Nairobi is set to deliver a landmark ruling this week regarding the control and ownership of the Jubilee Party, pitting a faction associated with former President Uhuru Kenyatta against another led by Secretary-General Jeremiah Kioni. The case centers on the legitimacy of the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC) and its decision-making authority. The ruling will determine who legally controls the party’s headquarters, funds, and its symbol—critical assets ahead of the next election. Political analysts note that the outcome could either signal a revival for Jubilee or mark its final descent into political oblivion.
