Stop Lying- Justina Wamae To Wajackoyah

Roots Party presidential running mate, Justina Wamae has accused her party leader, George Luchiri Wajackoyah, of fooling Kenyans with regard to the perks she was getting while in her position.

Wamae on Monday, August 22 launched a gloves-off retaliatory attack against Wajackoyah after her party summoned her for a disciplinary hearing in a demand letter addressed to her on the same day.

She termed the summons as 'pettiness', adding that she was defending herself from any wrongdoing in airing out her opinions.

Wamae asserted that she would not remain stuck to any political party and was ready to move on if need be. In addition, she advised Wajackoyah to do whatever he wants as it is his party.

"I will not respond to pettiness!

"But on the non-existent accommodation and car you imagined you 'assisted' me with you can withdraw in your dreams. It is your party do what you deem fit, I will soldier on," she wrote.

Roots Party, through its Legal Director Washika Wachira, had served the demand letter to Wamae, accusing her of failing to adhere to the Constitution of the roots party as well as its manifesto over recent comments that downgraded the party, including those that claimed that Wajackoyah was supporting former Prime Minister, Raila Odinga.

Wamae was also accused of continuously and maliciously misrepresenting the position of the party and that of the party leader having blocked him and other party officials. 

"We have been instructed by the Party Leader, Professor George Wajackoyah (herein referred as “the Party Leader”), with respect to your position as the running mate to the just concluded general elections, and your current utterances both in the mainstream media and social media.

"That in line with the above and your failure to adhere to the Roots Party Constitution and manifesto, the Party finds it in order, to invite you for a disciplinary hearing on August 26, 2022, at 2:30 PM, at the Party’s head office," the letter read in part.

Roots Party also noted that Wamae has only been in the party for less than two (2) months and has not bothered to peruse the party’s constitution and the party communication guidelines.

In addition, she has been for the short term assisted by the Party Leader with accommodation and the official party vehicle during the campaign period.

It referenced the previous expose whereby she termed Wajackoyah as a mole for the Azimio coalition to affirm her position as a party and as the marijuana professor's running mate.

At the time, she affirmed that she was only standing for the interests of women and youth, revealing that the public statement proved that top party officials can disagree with each other without escalating to tantrums.
