COTU Secretary General Francis Atwoli has accused former President Uhuru Kenyatta of contributing to Raila Odinga's 2022 election defeat due to his inactive campaign role. This comes amidst escalating political tensions within the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM).

• Atwoli stated Kenyatta "did not play an active enough role in Raila's campaign" despite public backing.
• He also warned former Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang'i that Kenyatta cannot make him president, citing Raila's loss.
• The ODM party is experiencing internal divisions, with factions disagreeing on the political stance of Secretary General Edwin Sifuna regarding a broad-based government.
