Cabinet Secretary for Defence Aden Duale has censured Former President Uhuru Kenyatta for embroiling himself in Jubilee party wrangles that have seen members fight for party leadership.
Uhuru stormed the Jubilee headquarters on Wednesday after two warring factions engaged in chaos. One was allied with Kanini Kega and another to Jeremiah Kioni.
The CS in a statement termed the move by the former President as "despicable".
"It’s appalling the depths the former President has fallen to the extent he rudely castigates police officers on official duty protecting life and property," the CS said.
"It is despicable to see a former President who after having served two full terms reduce his stature by fighting over a shell of a party that presided over misrule, wanton looting of public coffers and extrajudicial killings during the infamous rogue handshake regime."

Duale went on to say the former President should respect his standing in society and emulate the former Presidents by keeping off active politics and sullying his name by engaging in petty politics.

"Uhuru should cease muddying his image by trying to resuscitate a dead party and leave the tussle to elected MPs," he stated.
The CS went on to criticise Uhuru for telling off police officers who had been deployed to restore order at Jubilee Party Headquarters.
Duale at the same time accused Uhuru of being behind the mass protests that were witnessed in the country in March.
"It’s disconcerting as it is ironic that Uhuru is scoffing at police officers while pretending to be imploring them to keep the peace. It’s a worst-kept secret that Uhuru and his bitter cabal are sponsors of violent protests to undermine the government of Kenya Kwanza and H.E William Ruto," he said.
The CS said Uhuru and his opposition leaders should give President Ruto a break from anarchism and rebuild the battered economy crippled under his watch during the Handshake regime.
