Tycoon Suleiman Shahbal who was defeated in the recent general August elections by Governor Joho, has sent out warm, long emotional detailed message to his JUBILEE counterparts who he seemingly terms them as eying his position in the party for the coastal region, but who might that be? is it BALALA?
Weeks ago during Deputy presidents tour in the region, at WILD WATERS, fighting erupted between Shabal's and Balalaa's teams each endorsing their favorite only for dp Ruto calling for unity as they are all one for one course of hunting votes for president Uhuru Kenyatta re-election.
Shahbal's underlying concern is that voters need information in order to make informed voting decisions.To explore his argument, the concept of fighting him is defined more broadly in the message but insists on unity.
President Uhuru is currently at the coast campaigning for his re-election after the High Court nullified the presidential elections in favor of NASA after they filed a petition.
''HON. SHAHBAL'S MESSAGE''
''Today i want to speak to all members of Jubilee Party in Mombasa. Three years ago there was no Jubilee in Mombasa and people were even scared to wear Jubilee t-shirts. Today we have a credible party that we can be proud of and that is strong, recognized and respected. We all know that the results do not reflect the strength of the party as our votes were stolen - again. We are now a house divided and we need to unite again and agree on a common purpose. We need to change our attitude to politics. People should learn to volunteer and not expect to be paid ("facilitated") even for attending party meetings. People fight over this facilitation and this is the main course of most of our problems. This must change. Some petty politicians have made it a goal to be constantly attacking Shahbal or some other leaders - this is not leadership. Shahbal was a candidate, he lost, the elections are over and we have to get over them. We are all in pain and I have the most pain as i have worked for the last 4 years to build this party and it pains me to see people who came in six months ago now busy destroying the party we built door to door by inciting people and encouraging internal divisions. It is time we focus on the major issues. President's election. Whether you support Shahbal or not is now irrelevant. We are all working to making sure we get more votes for our President. That's where the focus should be. Pls put your energy in making sure your polling stations gets more votes for the President. Post elections - Jubilee needs to reorganise itself in Mombasa.

1. I propose we set up an NGO to train our people on how to set up a business, how to get funding, how to apply for Government and Parastatal tenders and to generally benefit from the various government programs that already exist.
2. I want all the women and youth groups to start setting up companies and prepare for business immediately after the elections.
3. Youth organizations - We need to develop new leaders not noise makers who make unrealistic demands. There were some Youth groups who believed they could blackmail leaders because of the voting season and now that the voting season is over who will care about them? I am proposing we organize leadership training for them and help them chart a new course for leadership.
4. Jubilee candidates for 2022 - Jubilee needs to produce new fresh faces. I would like to see more youths vying for leadership positions. These should be men and women who have delivered service to the people. They should be people who will unite people. They will produce a vision that be in line with the needs of our people and bring solutions to our problems. We need to reduce the political brokers who have been the main political brokers since the days of the Late Sharrif Nasser. We need to identify new leaders early, support them and work with them - not undermine them. We need to make sure they win in 2022.
5. Checks and balances in Mombasa. - Unfortunately the County Government has no opposition and this is dangerous to our county. They will do whatever they want. We will see an absolute abuse of our funds just as we saw between 2013 -2017. We must ensure that there is a credible opposition to the current county government. I want to propose we set up an opposition government immediately after the Presidential elections. Political parties in Kenya die immediately after the elections only to resurface just before the next elections. We must all work together to make sure that Jubilee reunites and becomes an active vibrant organization that continues working as soon as possible. I will call for a summit immediately after the election inviting all Jubilee leaders - those who support me and those who oppose me - and lets us agree on the way forward. United we win, divided we fall.
Tuko Pamoja.
Suleiman Shahbal.''
