A group of youth in Nakuru County are determined to claim stake in the Jubilee Party (JP). Dubbed Jubilee Digital 2017, the youthful group consisting of university students and jobless youth from all walks of life is poised to make a stab at capturing leadership positions in the UhuRuto led party. They want to increase chances of getting nominated for County Assembly and parliamentary seats next year.

Led by Charles Njihia, they have expressed frustration of being locked out of party leadership positions in the past. “The group has positioned itself to contest for various elective seats in the next General Election,” said Njihia, who leads the WhatsApp users group.
