Atandi criticises Linda Mwanainchi faction ahead of Sunday rally - April 2026

Alego Usonga MP Samuel Atandi has criticized leaders of the Linda Mwanainchi faction ahead of their planned rally in Kisumu this Sunday. He cautioned them to respect ODM party leader Oburu Oginga. This dispute comes as Kenya's 2027 General Election is poised for a significant shake-up, with two traditionally predictable voting blocs, Luo Nyanza and Mt Kenya, undergoing a political reset due to the absence of long-standing political figures and shifting alliances.

Key Highlights

Kenya's 2027 General Election is poised for a significant shake-up as two traditionally predictable voting blocs, Luo Nyanza and Mt Kenya, undergo a political reset. Both regions find themselves in uncharted territory due to the absence of long-standing political figures and shifting alliances.

  • Luo Nyanza, once the stronghold of the late Prime Minister Raila Odinga, is now grappling with internal divisions within the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) and incursions from President William Ruto's United Democratic Alliance (UDA).
  • Mt Kenya, traditionally a kingpin region, lacks a clear dominant party or figurehead, with President Ruto, **former President Uhuru Kenyatta**, and former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua all vying for influence.
  • These regions collectively command millions of votes, making their realignment crucial for determining the outcome of the next presidential contest.
