Siaya Governor James Orengo and Embakasi East MP Babu Owino rallied supporters of the ‘Linda Mwananchi’ faction at Ufungamano House, invoking the legacy of Raila Odinga and calling for major political and constitutional changes in Kenya.

• Governor Orengo asserted that significant political and constitutional changes in Kenya have historically originated from Ufungamano House, emphasizing that freedom is born from rebellion and urging vigilance to protect democratic gains.
• MP Babu Owino questioned the legitimacy of Oburu Odinga’s leadership, stating they would respect him as an elder but not as a party leader, and condemned the police deployment aimed at disrupting their meeting.
• Both leaders invoked the memory of Raila Odinga, with Orengo suggesting he would have supported their Ufungamano meeting over a rival convention, and Owino referencing the controversial endorsement of Oburu Odinga after Raila's passing.
