President William Ruto has pledged to strengthen the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) from internal threats, vowing to honor the late Raila Odinga's legacy by preserving the party's integrity. Speaking at Odinga's national funeral service in Bondo, Ruto affirmed ODM's role within his broad-based government.

• President Ruto stated his administration is committed to ensuring ODM remains a strong, vibrant, and respected political institution, now part of his government.
• Ruto revealed he proposed giving the Minister of Finance role to a leader from Nyanza, ultimately selecting John Mbadi, one of two names suggested by Odinga.
• Inflation has dropped from 9.6% to 4%, the exchange rate improved from 165 to 129, and Kenya is now the sixth-largest economy in Africa.
