The Orange Democratic Movement party's National Executive Committee (NEC) has initiated a formal process to remove Secretary-General Edwin Sifuna from his position due to alleged gross misconduct.

• The NEC resolved to begin removal proceedings at a meeting held on February 11.
• The key figure involved is ODM Secretary-General and Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna.
• ODM Chairperson Gladys Wanga issued Mr. Sifuna a show-cause letter, demanding an explanation within four days.

The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party is initiating disciplinary action against its Secretary General, Edwin Sifuna, for alleged gross misconduct.

• Sifuna has been issued a show-cause letter by party Chairperson Gladys Wanga, requiring a response by Wednesday, April 8, 2026, to six charges.
• The disciplinary process stems from a February 11, 2026, National Executive Meeting (NEC) resolution to remove him from his post.
• Accusations include publicly contradicting party positions on various dates, including an interview on Citizen TV on July 22, 2025, and forming an unsanctioned "Linda Mwananchi Initiative."
• Sifuna is also accused of failing to attend critical party meetings, including the Central Committee Meeting on January 12, 2026.

A show cause letter issued by Gladys Wanga to ODM Secretary General Edwin Sifuna has triggered a significant internal conflict within the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party.

• The letter accuses Sifuna of six charges, including gross misconduct and allegedly running a parallel political outfit under the Linda Mwananchi banner.
• Key figures involved include Gladys Wanga, chairperson of the National Elections Committee, and Edwin Sifuna, ODM Secretary General.
• The Linda Mwananchi faction has declared they will contest the allegations and the ensuing party battle.
