Nyeri Town MP Ngunjiri Wambugu has told off Jubilee’s secretary-general over plans to change the party’s colors and name.
In a Facebook post, Ngunjiri disagreed with Tuju. He claimed that the logo signified the party’s unity.
“Our party is about unity which is what the two clasped hands signify. The colors work for us. And really we cannot change party’s logo and colors every time some members leave. (Or join).”
The MP, one of the DP’s fierce critics, added that the party is more significant than an individual. And it shouldn’t be changing anytime individual leaves the party.
“Our parties must now be bigger than any individuals within. Unless we are saying that we will be changing our party logos and colors every time someone leaves (or joins) the party. Let’s not make some people look bigger than they are.”
The decision to change the party’s logos took place in a meeting by the party’s top leadership led by Vice-chairman David Murathe, SG Raphael Tuju, and his deputy Joshua Kutuny.
Kutuny stated that they were considering rebranding, including changing the colors and the slogan since URP, which the Deputy President had fronted, had moved on.
