Monday, April 21, 2025 - Tensions are simmering between Siaya Governor James Orengo and ODM leader, Raila Odinga, following Orengo’s open criticism of Raila’s alliance with President William Ruto.
Orengo has slammed the alliance as an “abomination,” warning
that it risks tying the opposition to the failures of the current regime.
His remarks have triggered a backlash from ODM loyalists and
Nyanza professionals, who accuse him of sabotaging efforts aimed at national
unity and progress.
The rift became more apparent over the weekend when Raila’s
bodyguard was seen blocking Orengo from boarding the same chopper as Raila.
Kileleshwa MCA, Robert Alai, didn’t mince words in his
reaction.
Posting on X, he said, “We don’t trust Governor Orengo with
Baba’s life. We will sort his place soon. We are not entertaining this nonsense
anymore.”
The unfolding drama signals a deeper mistrust within ODM’s inner circle, as Raila’s handlers appear to tighten control around the veteran leader’s inner security and alliances.
