Oburu Oginga, a leader within the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), has escalated a clash with Secretary General Edwin Sifuna, stating that Sifuna "is not the Pope" and that party discipline must be upheld amidst efforts to remove him from office.

• Oburu Oginga accused Edwin Sifuna of defying party structures, skipping key meetings, and running parallel political activities.
• The ODM party is in the process of ousting Sifuna as Secretary General over alleged gross misconduct, including contradicting party positions and pursuing unauthorized initiatives.
• Oburu claimed that the late Raila Odinga was "fed up" with Sifuna's actions prior to his death.
