Three ODM Members Removed From Parliamentary Committees

Three Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) members have been removed from parliamentary committees in a move sanctioned by a faction within the party, raising concerns about the party's internal dynamics. This follows the party's decision to expel Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna as party secretary-general, which ODM formally explained to the Political Parties Disputes Tribunal, citing months of miscommunication, missed meetings, and contradictory public statements. Meanwhile, Kenyan opposition leaders including ODM have vowed to obstruct President William Ruto's administration's plans to sell government stakes in key state entities. These developments highlight ongoing tensions within Kenya's major opposition party and its role in broader opposition coalitions.
