Kioni Says Jubilee Will Push Unity Agenda Ahead of 2027 Polls

Jubilee Party Secretary General Jeremiah Kioni has reaffirmed the party’s commitment to promoting national unity and issue-based politics, saying Jubilee will reject divisive narratives as it prepares for the 2027 General Election.

In a statement shared on his social media platforms on Tuesday, Kioni said the party had adopted a firm ideological position that places national interests above ethnic, religious or class considerations. 

He described the approach as central to Jubilee’s political reorganisation and re-entry into the national conversation.

“Jubilee has a clear, unified agreement. We will always approach issues from a national perspective. Our ideology is simple and firm: Kenya first, not tribe, class or religion,” Kioni said.

The former Ndaragwa MP noted that Kenya’s political history has been shaped by repeated cycles of division, which he said had undermined cohesion and slowed national development. 

He argued that Jubilee was determined to chart a different course by focusing on unity, inclusivity and shared national values.

According to Kioni, the party’s renewed message is aimed at healing political and social fractures that often intensify during election seasons. 

He said Jubilee would actively resist rhetoric that pits communities against each other for short-term political gain.

“We are committed to uniting our country and ending the cycle of divisive politics that has held us back for far too long. As a nation, we know better and must do better,” he stated.

Kioni also took aim at what he described as empty political messaging, saying Kenyans deserve leadership grounded in substance rather than slogans. 

He said Jubilee would prioritise policy discussions that address the real challenges facing citizens, including the cost of living, unemployment and governance reforms.

“Our country deserves better than hollow narratives and recycled rhetoric. Politics must be about solutions, not constant blame games,” he said.

The statement comes at a time when Jubilee is repositioning itself after a period of internal realignments and shifting alliances. 

Once the dominant ruling party, Jubilee has in recent years sought to redefine its role as an opposition force and a platform for reform-minded politics.

Kioni has been at the forefront of efforts to rebuild the party’s national outlook, insisting that Jubilee remains committed to democratic values and institutional reform. 

He has repeatedly said the party’s future lies in reconnecting with ordinary Kenyans rather than elite political bargains.

In November last year, Kioni used a separate public address to outline what he termed Jubilee’s reform agenda, calling for ethical leadership and people-centred governance. 

He said the country was grappling with broken promises and declining public trust in institutions, a situation that required leaders to restore credibility and moral authority.

“Our mission is clear: to serve, to rebuild and to rescue our country from the weight of broken promises,” Kioni said at the time. 

“Kenya yearns for honest leadership, justice and compassion, and Jubilee stands firm in restoring integrity, dignity and hope.”
