National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula has congratulated ODM for confirming Siaya Senator Oburu Oginga as its new party leader. Wetang’ula said the move places the party on the right trajectory ahead of the 2027 general election. “I want to congratulate members of ODM for holding a successful SDC that elected Siaya Senator Dr Oburu Odinga as the party leader. Kenya needs strong, stable political parties not individuals driven by personal interests that undermine institutions,” Wetang'ula said. Wetang’ula used the occasion to rally residents of Nandi and Kakamega counties to support President William Ruto’s bid for a second term, citing the progress made under the broad-based government.
