The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) has announced it will not seek the President or Deputy President positions in its ongoing power-sharing talks with the United Democratic Alliance (UDA). This signals a shift towards policy and governance rather than top executive offices, with ODM focusing on securing a fair share of influence within government.

• ODM Party Leader Oburu Oginga made the remarks during a joint public engagement with President William Ruto at Jomo Kenyatta Stadium.
• The two leaders presided over the disbursement of Sh220 million in business start-up capital to more than 8,000 youth entrepreneurs.
• ODM plans to negotiate for expanded representation in Cabinet beyond its current four portfolios, which include Treasury, Energy, Mining, and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).
