By DENNIS ODUNGAMore by this AuthorPresident Uhuru Kenyatta’s Jubilee Party has stepped up measures to stem defections in the wake of disgruntlement that has seen the outfit lose aspirants in parts of the country. The party will also use the electoral commission’s ballot boxes, according to Jubilee secretariat head Raphael Tuju. “If they are local people and have specific candidates, we can reshuffle them so that there is less contamination of the process by people with vested interests,” Mr Tuju said. Mr Tuju also dismissed claims that Jubilee was planning to officially accept parties that were not dissolved to join the President Uhuru Kenyatta-led outfit. I will be stupid to fight with them,” Mr Tuju said.
