Politician Rejoins Jubilee Less Than 24 Hours After UDA Defection

  • A former Jubilee aspirant for the Kiambaa parliamentary seat, Damaris Wambui Waiganjo on Sunday evening, May 24, rejoined the ruling party – less than 24 hours after defecting to the United Democratic Alliance (UDA). 

    Speaking during a press briefing at Elysian resort in Nairobi County, she detailed the reasons for her deeds -claiming she had acted out of anger after losing the nominations phase to Karanja Kariri Njama.

    The aspirant had been flanked by BBI secretariat co-chairman Dennis Waweru and Kiambu Governor James Nyoro.

    Businessman Kariri Njama has been selected as the Jubilee candidate for the Kiambaa by-election.

    “It was out of this disappointment, anguish, and bad feeling that I found myself making the announcement that I made last night prompting that I had moved from Jubilee party.

    “However, after soul searching, advice from supporters and political mentors, I have decided to withdraw my yesternight’s remarks and remain in the Jubilee party and continue to support President Uhuru Kenyatta’s ideas,” Waiganjo stated.

    She pledged to support the Jubilee party in the upcoming Kiambaa and Muguga by-elections. As Waweru was making his remarks, Waiganjo proceeded to leave the briefing presumably tearing up in the process.

    A section of political leaders allied to the UDA outfit read malice in the press briefing, alleging that she was intimidated to withdrawing her remarks.

    “Damaris, a Jubilee candidate who feels she was rigged out of its nominations in Kiambaa, endorsed UDA. Here she is today recanting her statement flanked by Waweru (BBI) and Nyoro governor. She didn’t finish her statement before she burst out crying! poor lady. She cites intimidation,” Murang’a Senator Irungu Kang’ata stated.

    Previously, Waiganjo had appeared at UDA offices and pledged her allegiance to UDA candidate, John Njuguna Wanjiku. 

    “To my dear followers, I have been chased out at the eleventh hour, I have no place to go, I cannot come and vie and ask to represent you because the timelines have been closed. 

    “We are in the 21st century, I cannot go to some people who have no ideas, no plans, no agendas, and explain to them what I want to do,” Waiganjo ranted much to the applause of the UDA members.

    The byelections for Kiambaa, set for Thursday, July 15, are shaping up as both Jubilee and UDA have fielded their candidates in a bid to claim supremacy within Kiambu County.
