President Uhuru Kenyatta led Jubilee party has expelled all the nominated senators who skipped the Parliamentary Group meeting held at State House.
Jubilee is further set to take action against rebels in parliament including recall.
The senators that have been shown the door are Falhada Dekow Iman, Naomi Jillo Waqo, Victor Prengei, Mary Seneta Yiane and Millicent Omanga.
According to Jubilee party Secretary General Raphael Tuju , they were expelled for Gross insubordination, Gross misconduct and received messages, did not even bother to send apologies for not attending meeting.
Wednesday morning, Dailytrends.co.ke had run a story listing the five senators that were set to be shown the door at Jubilee.
Uhuru’s allies say they will invoke the Political Parties Act, the Jubilee constitution and the Elections Act to replace the defiant nominated senators who are said to proclaim their loyalty to Ruto.
Show-cause letters have been sent to the targetted senators and they are expected to face a disciplinary committee as early as next week.
The Political Parties Act provides that a member may only be expelled from the party if the member has infringed the constitution of the party.
According to Section 14(7) of the Act, the said member must be afforded a fair hearing in accordance with the internal party disputes resolution mechanisms as prescribed in the constitution of the party.
Uhuru’s lieutenants believe that by undermining the President, who is the party leader, the rebels have acted in breach of the party’s supreme document.
