Sunday, February 23, 2025 - Energy Cabinet Secretary, James Opiyo Wandayi, has accused a section of Kenyan leaders of sabotaging Raila Odinga’s bid for the African Union Commission (AUC) chairmanship.
Speaking at the burial of historian, Prof. Bethwell Ogot, in
Gem Yala, Wandayi claimed that while President William Ruto actively campaigned
for Odinga, some leaders - whom he did not name - were working against him.
"This AUC election cycle has revealed a lot. We now
know who our genuine friends are and who doesn’t mean well for us,"
Wandayi stated.
His remarks come amid growing political tensions, with ODM
leaders signaling discontent over the Kenya Kwanza administration’s handling of
national affairs.
Kisumu Governor Prof. Peter Anyang’ Nyong’o warned that
while ODM played a role in calming the Gen Z-led anti-Government protests, they
will not continue doing so if the government fails to address Kenyans'
grievances.
Siaya Governor James Orengo echoed these sentiments,
asserting that ODM’s presence in Government does not mean they will stay silent
on inefficiencies.
With political realignments taking shape, ODM leaders seem
to be drawing new battle lines, setting the stage for renewed friction within
Ruto’s broad-based Government.
