ODM Leadership Calls Truce at Mombasa Retreat to End Internal Wrangles - May 2026

The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leadership has called for a truce at a Mombasa retreat, resolving to end internal conflicts and restore party unity. The retreat entered its second day focusing on strategizing for the 2027 General Election. ODM warned against anyone making statements contradicting party leadership. Siaya Governor James Orengo defended his role in securing ODM's claim for unpaid public funding, as the party demands Sh12 billion from the State. ODM leader Oburu Oginga called for an end to internal party disputes, warning that ongoing conflicts risk weakening the party ahead of next year's General Election.
