Monday, October 14, 2024 - Kilifi County Governor Gideon Mung’aro and the County Assembly Speaker Teddy Mwambire have resolved to work together.
The strained relationship between the two leaders over the past few months has led to the rise of rival factions, undermining ODM's efforts to maintain a united front in the coastal county.
The rift deepened this year when Mwambire, the ODM County chairman, led over 30 former ODM members back into the party, fueling accusations of undermining the governor's leadership.
The resolution was announced
during the ODM National Governing Council/leadership meeting in Mombasa County.
“Governor of Kilifi and Speaker
of the County Assembly Teddy Mwambire (ODM County Chairman) have resolved to
work together to foster unity and create a common vision for the party in the
County. We congratulate them on this milestone” the party said on X.
At the same time, the party
endorsed the bid by the immediate former MP for Magarini Harry Kombe whose
election was nullified by the court.
“The party will fully support the bid by the immediate former MP for Magarini Harry Kombe, (whose election was nullified) to recapture the seat when the date for the by-election is set.
"Hon. Kombe is the party candidate” said party leader Raila Odinga.
