ODM Party Leader Oburu Oging'a with embattled Secretary General Edwin Sifuna.[File, Standard]
Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna has asked the Political Parties Disputes Tribunal to declare the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) resolution removing him as Secretary General unlawful, arguing that both the decision and subsequent disciplinary action against him are legally flawed
Through his lawyer, Senior Counsel Isaac Okero, Sifuna told a bench led by acting chairperson Gad Gathu that the National Executive Committee (NEC) resolution of February 11, 2026, was passed without giving him a chance to defend himself, rendering it invalid.
“It is common ground that no opportunity had been afforded the complainant to defend himself before pronouncement of the impugned resolution,” Okero submitted, adding that this violated Article 74 of the party constitution as well as principles of fair administrative action.
