Cracks have emerged in the Orange Democratic Movement's (ODM) alliance with the Kenya Kwanza administration, fueled by a contentious debate over electoral zoning ahead of the 2027 General Election.

• The debate intensified during simultaneous rallies attended by National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula in Migori and Homa Bay counties.
• Key figures involved include Speaker Moses Wetang’ula, Senate Majority Leader Aaron Cheruiyot, Rarieda MP Otiende Amollo, and former Migori Governor Okoth Obado.
• Opposing views on zoning were voiced, with some advocating for structured negotiations and others condemning it as discriminatory and urging open competition for tickets.
