The party expressed gratitude to Njoroge for her years of service and wished her well as she begins a new chapter in her leadership journey.

"As she embarks on a new chapter in her leadership journey, we convey our heartfelt gratitude for her years of dedicated service. We wish her God's guidance, wisdom, good health, and every success in her future endeavors," the statement concluded.

Njoroge announced her resignation from the party earlier Tuesday, confirming that it takes effect immediately.

"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," she wrote.

Njoroge noted that she joined TNA as communications manager in 2012 before the party merged with the United Republican Party (URP) to form the Jubilee Party.

The political strategist rose through the ranks to become Deputy Organizing Secretary of the party. 

"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 added.

Njoroge thanked retired President and Jubilee Party leader Uhuru Kenyatta, describing him as a mentor and political father. 

"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. He believed in me, entrusted me with responsibility and invested in my growth," she further said.

Njoroge said she will dedicate herself to the Linda Mwananchi team, saying the movement offers a platform to advance the aspirations of a new generation of Kenyans through good governance, constitutionalism, accountability and servant leadership.

"It is for this reason that I have made the difficult but deeply considered decision to dedicate myself fully to this cause. In doing so, I bring to a close a remarkable fourteen-year chapter in a party that has been my political home," she further said.
