Political communications strategist Pauline Njoroge has resigned from the Jubilee Party after 14 years, ending a stint that saw her rise from Communications Manager to Deputy Organizing Secretary in the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC).
In a statement issued on Tuesday, July 21, Njoroge announced her resignation from both the party and her leadership position, saying she had decided to fully dedicate herself to the Linda Mwananchi movement.
“For the last fourteen years, I have walked an incredible political journey. Today, however, I believe the time has come to embrace a new chapter,” she said.
“I therefore wish to announce my resignation from the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the Jubilee Party, where I have served as Deputy Organizing Secretary, and as a member of the Jubilee Party, effective today.”
Pauline Njoroge joined The National Alliance (TNA) in 2012 as Communications Manager before the party merged with the United Republican Party (URP) to form the Jubilee Party.
She remained with Jubilee after the merger and later became the party’s Deputy Organizing Secretary.
Reflecting on her time in the party, Njoroge described the experience as transformative, saying it had shaped her political career and strategic communications skills.
“Looking back, I do so with immense gratitude. For someone deeply passionate about politics and strategic communications, these fourteen years have been nothing short of transformational,” she said.
“They have shaped my thinking, sharpened my craft and given me the privilege of serving during one of the most defining political periods in our country’s history.”

Pays tribute to Uhuru Kenyatta
Njoroge paid tribute to former President Uhuru Kenyatta, describing him as a mentor and political father who played a key role in her growth.
She said the former Jubilee Party leader entrusted her with leadership responsibilities and exposed her to governance and leadership experiences across Africa and beyond.
“I am especially grateful to the Jubilee Party Leader, H.E. Uhuru Kenyatta, who has been more than a leader to me. He has been a mentor, a teacher and a political father,” she said.
“He believed in me, entrusted me with responsibility and invested in my growth.”
Despite leaving Jubilee, Njoroge said Kenyatta would continue to be a valued source of wisdom and counsel.
Shift to Linda Mwananchi movement
Njoroge said she had been part of the Linda Mwananchi movement since February and had become convinced that it offers a platform for advancing good governance, constitutionalism, accountability and servant leadership.
She added that her decision also aligns with the broader WANTAM movement, which she described as a call for national renewal anchored on integrity, constitutionalism and people-centred leadership.
“It is for this reason that I have made the difficult but deeply considered decision to dedicate myself fully to this cause,” she said.

She maintained that Linda Mwananchi is committed to defending the rule of law, constitutionalism, human rights and leadership founded on accountability and service to citizens.
“As one chapter closes, another begins. I step into it with optimism, renewed purpose and an unwavering belief that Kenya deserves leadership that listens, unites and puts citizens first,” she said.
