Sources indicate that she was asked to enter the premises alone but she insisted on being accompanied by her four lawyer.
Initially, Wamae had insinuated that she would ignore the summon, referring to it as petty. However, on Friday morning, just hours to the scheduled meeting, Justina said that she will honor the summon because she respects institutions, including the informal ones, while making reference to an interview that her party leader George Wajackoya had attended in NTV a while back.
She added that she is expecting a number of media houses to attend the disciplinary committee meeting since the summon was copied to them in what looked like they were members of the Roots party committee.

Justina, who served as Wajackoya’s running mate was required to present herself today at the party’s headquarters because of her public utterances and behaviors indicating that she had disassociated herself from the party.
In a recent interview, Justina revealed that trouble with her boss began when she publicly stated her political stand after he was accused of publicly endorsing Raila Odinga, who vied on an Azimio ticket.
She added that Wajackoya blocked her and they have never communicated on phone since then.
“Before I did the public statement on the contrary. That was on August 3 and it is the last time we spoke on the phone. We were together at Bomas. In person we speak but on the phone we don’t because he blocked me. We have not spoken to him directly, but we have other people who handled the votes, our agents,” Justina said in an interview with KTN.
