The Political Parties Dispute Tribunal (PPDT) will deliver a ruling on March 26 regarding the legality of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party's upcoming National Delegates Convention (NDC) and the sacking of its Secretary General, Edwin Sifuna. This decision, made on the eve of the convention, plunges the party into further crisis.

• The ruling could force the Oburu Oginga-led faction to either postpone the March 27 NDC or proceed without knowing its legitimacy.
• A petition filed by Vincent Chepkwony challenges the legality of current ODM office holders, including interim party leader Oburu Oginga, and resolutions made by the National Executive Committee (NEC) and Central Management Committee (CMC).
• ODM argues the petition is premature and that internal dispute resolution mechanisms have not been exhausted, asserting that its actions are within the party constitution.
