Following the death of Raila Odinga, Rarieda MP Otiende Amollo asserts that the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) is not in turmoil but in transition. He states that internal debates on the party's future are democratic expressions, not signs of fragmentation, and emphasizes the party's resilience and strong structures.

• Amollo dismissed claims of fragmentation, stating ODM's internal discussions are "democratic expressions of opinion" and the party has "survived storms before."
• He emphasized the importance of ODM's independence, noting "The president cannot speak for ODM" in relation to broad-based government arrangements.
• Senator Dr. Oburu Oginga has been appointed as acting party leader by the National Executive Committee, with permanent leadership decisions to follow later.
• Amollo highlighted ODM's extensive structures, including "over 44,000 polling stations, each with 20 officials," to maintain stability.

Former Chief Justice David Maraga has accused President William Ruto of undermining Kenya's Constitution and betraying the ideals of Raila Odinga by signing several controversial bills into law. Speaking on Tuesday, Maraga urged Kenyans to reject these "draconian laws" which he claims threaten free speech, media freedom, and national ownership of key public assets.

• Maraga criticized 8 contentious bills enacted on the day of Raila Odinga's death, including the Computer Misuse and Cybercrimes (Amendment) Act and the Privatisation Act.
• He specifically highlighted the cybercrimes act for granting "unconstitutional powers" to a state committee to block websites without judicial oversight, and the privatization act for giving the Treasury Cabinet Secretary sweeping powers to sell public assets with limited scrutiny.
• Maraga warned that the Kenya Kwanza administration is borrowing over Sh5 billion weekly while planning to auction public property to "crony capitalists and political allies," urging citizens to protect Kenya's sovereignty.

Political parties affiliated with the United Opposition have disavowed Nyeri Governor Mutahi Kahiga following controversial remarks perceived as celebrating the death of former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, sparking public outrage.

• The United Opposition, through spokesperson Mukhisa Kituyi, stated that Governor Kahiga belongs to the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Party and not their coalition.
• Kahiga's comments, made at a funeral in his village, were described as a personal opinion and not sanctioned by any opposition party.
• The opposition criticized the ruling UDA Party for not addressing Kahiga's remarks and alleged his outbursts against the government were "stage-managed" for political gain.
• Governor Kahiga has since resigned as Vice Chairperson of the Council of Governors (CoG) and issued an apology for his statements.
