Top ODM leaders are converging in Kisumu for a critical rally expected to shape the party's political direction and potentially endorse President William Ruto's 2027 presidential bid. This meeting is being framed as a pivotal moment for the Luo Nyanza community in the post-Raila Odinga era.

• The rally aims to secure a united declaration of support for the working arrangement between ODM and President Ruto's UDA party.
• Key figures attending include ODM party leader Oburu Oginga, Cabinet Secretaries John Mbadi, Opiyo Wandayi, and Hassan Joho.
• The event faces opposition from the Linda Mwananchi faction, led by Siaya Governor James Orengo, who are advocating for a different political path.
