Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) Secretary General and Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna is reportedly facing growing pressure within his party, with insiders indicating that a push to remove him from his powerful position is quietly gathering momentum.

This comes in the wake of Sifuna’s recent public remarks distancing himself from the broad-based government and openly criticizing President William Ruto, despite the late party leader Raila Odinga’s directive that ODM lawmakers should support the administration until 2027.

For months, Sifuna has been among the most vocal opposition voices, frequently taking aim at the President and government policies.

While his stance has been popular among a section of ODM supporters, senior officials within the party are said to be increasingly uncomfortable with what they view as defiance and a departure from the party’s current strategic positioning.

According to well-placed sources, a section of ODM leaders now wants Sifuna removed as Secretary General, claiming he has consistently gone against official party positions and is allegedly associating with another political faction known as Kenya Moja.

These claims, though unconfirmed by Sifuna himself, have reportedly been a major point of discussion in recent internal meetings.

The emerging rift highlights the silent tensions within ODM as it navigates a new political landscape following Raila Odinga’s transition to continental leadership. Party insiders argue that maintaining unity and discipline is essential, and any perceived rebellion will be dealt with decisively.

Sifuna is not the only high-profile leader said to be on the chopping board. Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale is also facing heat within the United Democratic Party (UDP), with plans reportedly underway to remove him as Senate Majority Whip.

This follows accusations that he campaigned against the ruling party’s candidate in the Malava Constituency by-election.

As both parties take steps to consolidate control and discipline, the political fate of the two outspoken senators remains uncertain—but early signs point to turbulent days ahead.
