ODM Members Debate Party's Future Direction and Leadership

Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) Members of Parliament have urged party leader Raila Odinga not to settle for anything less than the deputy presidency in future coalition talks, citing the party's strong national footprint. This comes amid political maneuvering within the party that is raising questions about its alignment with Raila Odinga's vision. The influence of Oburu Oginga's allies is a particular point of discussion. Recent discussions among these allies suggest a deviation from the political style and substance of Raila Odinga. These events have led to speculation about whether the party is adhering to his progressive ideals and if his spirit still defines its direction.
