The ODM Linda Mwananchi team successfully held its People's National Delegates Convention at Ufungamano House in Nairobi on March 29, 2026, despite a significant police presence aimed at disrupting the event. The convention followed the party's Special National Delegates Convention held at Jamhuri Grounds, Nairobi, where an estimated Sh100 million was reportedly spent, raising questions about funding sources. A faction of the Orange Democratic Movement now led by Oburu Oginga has announced plans to negotiate with President William Ruto ahead of the 2027 polls, signaling a potential shift in the party's direction.
