Jubilee Party supporters in Phoenix, Arizona have condemned their Nasa counterparts over last Saturday's protests outside United Nations headquarters in New York.
In a statement, Jubilee Party US coordinator, Engineer John Kamau said that it was out of order for Kenyans living in the US to protest at the UN against their own country.
"Nasa supporters who held demonstrations in New York and plan to hold such like demonstrations in Dallas, Texas next week are despicable and a disgrace," said Kamau.
"We are warning Nasa supporters to stop pushing Kenyans in the Diaspora to demonstrate against the government and to stop calling for the removal of IEBC. They should stop attempting to stop intimidating the IEBC with removal and issuing ambiguous, ever changing demands and meddling with judicial officers,” the statement said in part.
Kamau further added that 85 per cent of Kenyans living in US were Jubilee supporters and were advocating for peace. Kamau said that if pushed to the wall, President Uhuru's supporters were willing to stage mega demos in major cities in the US to show their mighty.
"The economy of Kenya is suffering and our country is becoming a laughing stock Just because one person and a small group of hardliners must have their way or no way. As Jubilee supporters we have now said enough is enough. Kenyans must be allowed to exercise their democratic freedom without this unnecessary intrigues,” Kamau said.
The Jubilee supporters also demanded that National Super Alliance leader Raila Odinga to immediately stop dividing the country.
They challenged Raila's supporters to a Live televised debate in Phoenix, Arizona.

Sasa nini. Maybe Kamau thinks All Diaspora States in the US are Kikuyu Populated like Delaware (just like one would think All Diaspora States in the US are more Kisii Populated as Minnesota). So the 85% he is Talking about is Skewed and Very, Very, Very Misleading and even Rigged.
NASA supporters in the Diaspora are just a drop in the bucket and mostly the same servants of Raila. Actually, they are a naive bunch that is unable to rationalize truth from fiction. They live in utopia and are blinded by arrogance and absurd ignorance. They need to wake up and smell the coffee; and when they do, they will say Goodbye Lord of Poverty".
Sokora. On 8/8/17, NASA beat Jubilee for Real 65% NASA: 35% Jubilee. So stop yapping. Yep!
Your mathematics is very wrong. We vote according to tribal line so do the math. Fuana wacha oungo
NASA roped in Lots of Rift Vallians on 8/8/17. The rest of KiuKaleo Tribalists did NOT Exceed 35%
Shame on you u better get ur facts rights befofe u just verbal diarrhoea
And u So called sokoro u shud waKe uo and smelk the coffee that is if u even know how coffee smells .....
The ny nasa wakoras are dummer than raila... drunk wakora who have nothing to show!
J2. Uhuru is the one who Drinks and Drinks Silly; and he is NOT a NASAn.
Kamau ir watever u call urself go sut diwn somewhere and get a toothbrush!!
Kamau, it is high time our Gikuyus made friends with other tribes. Can't we appreciate that Jaramogi helped Jomo? Can't we appreciate that Raila helped Kibaki over take Moi? Don't we know that in 1966 Jomo changed constitution like UK is trying to do now? Then after his death Moi used those rules to become very powerful? Don't we know that we Gikuyus tried to remove Moi by 1st Njonjo but failed. Then we organized coup in 1982 but put Luos in front line. When it aborted we kept quiet and Luos were charged (Ochuka, Okeyo).
We can't do any business without other tribes. Now Uhuru is creating more enemies against us. If it is true Uhuruto had genuine votes, how can they allow the same IEBC officials back? Njoki Ndung'u, Githu, should be told that forcing changes now will cause more chaos. 5 years is too short even if we loose than creating enemeies with 43 tribes of Kenya.
Again, stop useless propaganda. Where do you get 85%? That is a fake number. No way, we gikuyus only can not form even 30% of diaspora votes. This is because Uhuru has made sure that every benefit in government s for Gikuyus only. I have suffered more so much yet I'm agikuyu. Right now I can't call other tribes coz I'm what they say is that I should be calling my fellow kiuks. We MUST change NOW.
Use "I" - not "we"
Njeri Rose Kamau. I am Humbled. And it's because what you just said is Very Sharp and Double Edged in the sense that it "Also Appeals to Other Side of the Isle; for Other Tribes to be Friends to Gikuyus too." It's Very Uniting; Very Reconciling.
Stop, just stop with the lies, distortion of history and whining. Utter rubbish. And if your friends won't come to your aid because you are a Kikuyu is because they were never your friends to begin with. Open your eyes, wide open.
Ok go. Where has Kamau lied in her Comment? Where?
"Kamau, it is high time our Gikuyus made friends with other tribes".....not sure if Rose you're a Kikuyu for real or is a pseudonym, etc., but that first line reeks of what Raila has been trying to do. Wanting Kenyan communities be divided along tribal lines, yet if you went to Wanjiku before RAO started dividing Kenyans, tribe is not very important in every day life of common wananchi. But just because this hegoat wants to be a president, then he does not care whether cracks in inter-tribal relations become valleys....
Using my crystal balls, I can peek in and see that the day RAO finally steps out of the limelight and disappears into the far horizon, you will see a form Kyuk-Luo alliance begin to form, posing a formidable political electorate. Mark my words. After all in politics, enemies are only temporary.
Sijui where you come from in Kenya but where I do , well correction where my parents reside, my right hand neighbor is a muslim somali , the left hand side is a Kamba corporate man, across is a luo once corporate man , next to him is a luhya home schooling family, next to them is a kisii, and next to Kamba is a Luhya, so not sure what you mean kikuyu be nice " blah and for your info even in 2007/08 we co -existed well, my folks did , helped each other with maziwa , congregated in each other homes for prayers. SO if you have been raise in a homogeneous tribal county , stop assuming the whole country is such .. I loath generalizations
That is very shallow geography @Njeri Rose Kamau. Talk about yourself only. Many people were brought up in town or areas where there many micro-nation. When I was a kid I went outside and played with the kids in our neighborhood. Which consisted of many micro-nations. We went to school together and intermarried afterwards. What you are describing does not reflect where I live or grew up
Some people are educated but lack common sense and wisdom. The said Kamau, everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly.
It provides a means for public expression and is one of the foundations of a democratic society including kenya.The right applies to protest marches and demonstrations, press conferences, public and private meetings, counter-demonstrations, ‘sit-ins’, motionless protests etc. So who are you to tell those exercising their rights to stop? Wacha kupayuka, go ahead and counter-demonstrate if you want to. It's your right. Don't embarrass Kenyans living in the US, speak for yourself.
Keep on complaining you people,its a fact 85% are for peace (and peace in this case is JUBILEE)
I hope they do not try to block the roads or break into supermarkets or eateries. Otherwise, all the best in your vain task!
Pilipili usiokula ina kuwasha aje. In the USA there is something called Freedom of Expression.My demonstrating and expressing my political opinion does not stop you from expressing yours.As for the party affiliation of the diaspora who cares. All they have is opinions. They still cannot vote so they do the next best thing. All power to them it is called living in a free country.
As I have always maintained NasA has "invested" a lot in public stage management of issues. Just get a few fellas to go to a demo and the message is broadcast all over the world. Give credit where it is due, despite their meager numbers they know how to package their message through the friendly media.
Hei Ksmau, you have the right to campaign for jubilee just as any other person has a right to camaign for NASA. You make it sound that, doing a demonstration or protesting against what one thinks is an injustice is wrong. I can easily say Jubilee is doing the same thing in Kenya.
You are also a liar. How do you know 85% of Kenyans in the diaspora are for peace? So, there is a 15% that does not want peace? Where did you find those people?Do throw to us raw meat of numbers that are not supported by any factual finding? Kamau, campaign and vote for whoever you want but don't tell me what I should do. Arizona Jubilee supporters have said what? What did the Arizona NASA supporters say?
Our country is not becoming a laughing stock because of these elections, there are so many other things like the fleecing the country of billions of shillings if not dollars by one single factor: Corruption. Do you believe paying China billions of shillings for 1900's locomotives that were just painted new is not a laughable matter? I don't have to give more examples.
