The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) has urged the Political Parties Disputes Tribunal (PPDT) to let it handle the case of Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna internally first. The party argues that the ongoing disciplinary process is lawful and should be allowed to run its course before external intervention.

• ODM insists that Senator Sifuna convened a rival national conference after a previous tribunal ruling, which forms part of the grounds for his disciplinary proceedings.
• Edwin Sifuna, the Secretary-General, is seeking to block his removal and any disciplinary proceedings, claiming the process is flawed and predetermined.
• The dispute stems from a February 11 National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting decision to remove him over alleged misconduct, including contradicting party positions and engaging in unsanctioned initiatives.

Internal divisions within the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) are escalating, with one faction demanding a leadership overhaul and the nullification of recently endorsed party officials.

• A group led by Sifuna, operating under the banner "ODM Linda Mwananchi," has issued demands.
• The opposing faction is reportedly led by Oburu, who is also claiming the acting leader position.
• The core demand is to nullify recently endorsed party officials and hold a fresh national delegates conference.

Leaders within the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) have issued strong warnings against internal dissent and external interference, reaffirming party loyalty ahead of the 2027 general election.

• ODM officials declared they would not tolerate attacks on their party leader and would defend the party's unity and direction.
• Key figures involved include Oburu Odinga, Simba Arati, Abdulswamad Sheriff Nassir, Gladys Wanga, George Aladwa, Junet Mohammed, and Esther Passaris.
• The party emphasized its continued relevance and the importance of internal democracy, with a call to end direct nominations and reaffirming its commitment to fielding candidates for all positions.
