Governor Peter Munya has said the formation of the Jubilee Alliance Party (JAP) will lead to party dictatorship in its strongholds.

Speaking while launching two dispensaries at KK Elama and Kairuru villages in Igembe North, Munya claimed a clique of senior politicians wanted to create party machinery that will end the career of their rivals. "They want a colossus they will control from Nairobi, having a say on who will have the party ticket from the national level to the grassroots. This is nothing short of the dictatorship that we had during the one-party rule," claimed the Council of Governors (COG) chairman.
