Sunday, May 11, 2025 - Homa Bay Town MP, Peter Kaluma, has launched a scathing attack on ODM Secretary General and Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna over his persistent criticism of the party’s pact with Ruto’S United Democratic Alliance (UDA).
In a social media statement on Sunday, Kaluma warned that
Sifuna risks ejection from the party if he continues opposing the Memorandum of
Understanding (MoU) between ODM and UDA, which laid the foundation for the
broad-based Government (BBG).
“You can’t be eating and vomiting at the same time.”
“You are not more articulate than Namwamba.”
“Shape up or ship out!” Kaluma wrote, referencing the
previous Secretary General, Ababu Namwamba, who was kicked out of ODM
unceremoniously.
The MP accused Sifuna of undermining party unity by
targeting key ODM leaders serving in Government, including Treasury CS John
Mbadi and Energy CS, Opiyo Wandayi.
Kaluma said such actions contradicted the party’s official
position and disrespected decisions made by ODM leadership.
According to Kaluma, Sifuna, as Secretary General, was
expected to uphold and promote the party’s stance, not criticize it.
Kaluma further reminded him that ODM had gained significant
influence within Government structures, making continued opposition untenable.
This comes after ODM leader, Raila Odinga, urged Sifuna to
"tone down," emphasizing the importance of maintaining party
discipline despite internal differences.
''The spokesman of the party is usually the Secretary
General, so when Mr Sifuna speaks, he speaks on behalf of the party.”
“But Mr Sifuna, sometimes tone down a bit," Raila said
during the funeral of Kasipul MP, Charles Were.
