A fresh political storm is brewing following sharp remarks exchanged between Oburu Odinga and Senate Speaker Amason Kingi, highlighting deepening divisions within Kenya’s political landscape.
In a video that has since sparked widespread reactions, Oburu Odinga, a senior figure in the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), did not hold back in his criticism of Kingi.
The outspoken politician appeared visibly angered by comments attributed to the Senate Speaker, who allegedly claimed that the ODM party lost its influence following the death of opposition leader Raila Odinga.
Speaking during an interview, Oburu strongly defended the party’s legacy and dismissed Kingi’s remarks as both inaccurate and disrespectful.
He went further to recount Kingi’s political rise, crediting Raila Odinga for giving him an opportunity that shaped his career.
“Raila picked him from nowhere and made him who he is today,” Oburu stated, in remarks that have since gone viral.
