Siaya Governor James Orengo has voiced strong concerns about the potential departure of Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna from his role as Secretary General of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), describing it as a "great loss." This comes amidst Sifuna’s growing involvement with the new Kenya Moja faction, sparking rumors of an ODM exit.

• Orengo emphasized that losing Sifuna would be a significant setback for the ODM party.
• The emergence of the Kenya Moja faction, led in part by Sifuna, involves disaffected ODM members and former allies of President William Ruto's Kenya Kwanza.
• Sifuna's past statement about quitting ODM if the party backed Ruto in the 2027 polls caused considerable internal friction.
