Lamu Governor Issa Timamy has retracted his decision to join Jubilee Party but said he is neither interested in the ruling coalition nor the opposition's Cord. Timamy told residents at Mwana Arafa Hotel in Lamu on Monday that he has opted for Musalia Mudavadi’s Amani National Coalition. "Those who had already started bragging of owning Jubilee Party can now rest easy since I have left their party for them, and I am really glad I did," he said. Timamy said Jubilee and Cord were overpopulated and marred with too much infighting, which he said he wasn’t willing to be party to. Timamy further said Jubilee and Cord have "successfully planted hate and enmity among politicians in other parties instead of uniting Kenyans.
