Former Mukurweini MP Kabando wa Kabando has asked Interior CS Kithure Kindiki to refrain from settling scores with retired President Uhuru Kenyatta.
The former lawmaker was referring to the Jubilee National Delegates Conference (NDC) which was set to be held at the Bomas of Kenya on May 22.
The Bomas management has since written to the former ruling party informing it of the venue’s unavailability starting May 16, for a period of eight weeks.
“Our main Auditorium, whose capacity is 2,000 pax, has been scheduled for renovation works from 16th May 2023 for eight (8) weeks,” Bomas told Jubilee’s acting executive director Polycarp Hinga.

“In view of the foregoing, we are regrettably unable to host you for your NDC on 22nd May 2023.”
On Thursday, Kabando requested CS Kindiki to allow Jubilee hold their NDC at the Bomas as earlier announced in a notice.
Kabando who unsuccessfully sought to become Nyeri Senator in the 2022 elections said the minister should take the high road even though Uhuru had “tormented and humiliated” him.
“My friend Kindiki Kithure, it’s undeniable President Uhuru tormented and humiliated you after representing him at ICC… But be the bigger and nicer person now that you are the CS,” he tweeted.

“Don’t revenge against Uhuru. Let him run his Jubilee Party show.”
“We know that this is part of the government’s scheme to ensure that we do not hold the NDC but we want to assure the delegates of Jubilee that the NDC will be there on Monday,” he said.
“We have actually secured more venues including private venues so that in the event that all government agencies are instructed not to host us, we will still go the NDC but within Nairobi.”
