Many leaders and supporters have been debating about the future of the party and who should take charge.
ODM leader and Siaya Senator Oburu Oginga has now issued a strong warning to some leaders he claims are speaking on behalf of the party without authority.
Speaking during an interview, Oburu made it clear that ODM will not allow confusion from leaders who are now serving in government positions.
He mentioned former Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho, Minority Leader Opiyo Wandayi, and Nominated MP John Mbadi, saying they should stop commenting on ODM matters unless they officially resign from government roles.
“They don’t speak on behalf of ODM,” Oburu said firmly.
“If they want to represent the party, they have to resign from the government.”
According to Oburu, ODM is going through a sensitive time after the loss of its leader, and only those who are fully committed to the party should speak about its direction.
He added that the party is in the process of rebuilding and organizing itself, and it will not tolerate mixed loyalties or personal ambitions that could cause division.
Oburu also said that his temporary leadership is focused on maintaining unity among members while preparing for proper elections to fill Raila’s position permanently.
