Laikipia North MP Sarah Korere has explained why the party decided to kick out Jeremiah Kioni from the post of secretary general.
Speaking on Thursday, Korere said Kioni had never called a members' meeting to discuss how they planned to work with Azimio after the elections.
She added that Kioni made decisions for the party without consulting the members.
"Why we kicked out Kioni as SG is because as SG, he has never ever called members of parliament to discuss how we intend to engage Azimio going forward," Korere said.
"Kioni has been sitting in a corner somewhere and making very serious decisions on our behalf and I don't think that is right."
The MP faulted Kioni for insisting that the Jubilee party was founded and was being funded by former president Uhuru Kenyatta.
Korere added that a lot of work had been put into building the party and it cannot be owned by one person.
"Jubilee is a party that was formed by many parties coming together including URP where I sat as a member of the NEC, which was merged with Jubilee.
"We put in a lot of resources, we put in a lot of work and no one can claim Jubilee."
Last week, the party's National Executive Committee met and resolved to change its leadership and exit the Azimio coalition.
They also resolved to work with Ruto's administration.
In changes, Jubilee resolved to remove Jeremiah Kioni, David Murathe and Kagwe Gichohi as Secretary general, vice chairman and Treasurer respectively.
They were replaced by an interim team led by EALA MP Kanini Kega, Eldas MP Aden Keynan and Kitui South MP Rachel Nyamai.
Despite these changes, which have been approved by the Registrar of Political Parties Ann Nderitu, Kioni insists he is the rightful office holder.
