Suba South MP Caroli Omondi believes the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) is losing its prominence and strongholds due to self-centered leadership and a shift in supporter allegiance. He notes that the party, once influential, has seen a decline in parliamentary seats from 96 in 2007 to 87 in 2013, with further reductions since.

• MP Caroli Omondi states that ODM no longer reflects its supporters' aspirations and its strongholds in Nyanza and Western regions are shifting support.

• He cited the party's partnership with President William Ruto's administration, forming a "broad-based government partnership," as a cause for internal divisions and erosion of support.

• Cracks within the party are evident, with members like Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna threatening to exit if ODM backs President Ruto in the 2027 General Election.
