President Ruto Attends ODM's 20th Anniversary Amid Coalition Talks and Party Divisions - November 2025

The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) marked its 20th anniversary with celebrations including special prayers in Kilifi County and a Founders' Dinner in Mombasa. President William Ruto attended the dinner, where he dismissed calls to join the party but lauded it as a symbol of national unity, stating he has his roots in ODM. President Ruto openly appealed to ODM for support in his 2027 re-election campaign, and reportedly revealed a plan concerning ODM ministries as the party considers a coalition with UDA. While these discussions took place, divisions within the twenty-year-old ODM party have emerged, with some leaders alleging a plot to remove them from their positions. In response, ODM Chairperson Gladys Wanga stated that ideological differences will not destabilize the party.
