ODM Party Internal Conflicts and Rallies - February 2026

Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna alleged that he and his team were targeted at Kisumu International Airport on Saturday, February 21, by alleged state-sponsored goons who barricaded the facility. ODM party Secretary General Edwin Sifuna has blamed police and airlines for chaos that disrupted a rally in Kakamega, alleging state agencies endangered opposition leaders by allowing disruptions and sharing travel details. Oburu Odinga challenged a faction within ODM linked to ousted Secretary General Edwin Sifuna and Babu Owino to leave the party if they are unhappy with its current political direction during a parallel rally in Siaya County.
