ODM Moves To Save Murkomen From Making Ignorant Misapprehensions

The looming expulsion of Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa and her Msambweni Counterpart Suleiman Dori seem to be taking fresh twists with each day that passes.

Just days after the embattled duo hired Elgeyo Marakwet Senator Kipchumba Murkomen to help them fight their expulsion from the ODM, ODM has now come out firing guns at Murkomen for making ignorant misapprehensions.

Yesterday, Jumwa and Dori in a letter copied to the ODM National Governing Council said there was complete disregard of the constitution of the party in the manner and style the disciplinary committee arrived at the decision to expel them.

They have further dismissed claims that they are supporting Deputy President William Ruto’s 2022 presidential bid.

In the letter, Murkomen said the two MPs are aware of ODM’s position to support government initiatives under the Building Bridges Initiative that arose following the handshake between President Uhuru Kenyatta and Opposition chief Raila Odinga.

He said any such association with the government including DP Ruto was in line with the initiative and an exercise of freedom of association.

“An allegation that the two MPs supported a presidential candidate other than an ODM candidate is baseless and outrageous as no party has nominated such a candidate as at the time of the alleged utterances,” he said.

Today, ODM in a response letter to Kipchumba Murkomen has said that the National Governance Council ,NGC is not a court of law, neither is it a forum for submissions & interrogations.

ODM has said that the period for Jumwa and Dori to defend themselves against allegations labelled against them elapsed at the first two stages of their trial and that the role of NGC is to either agree with the recommendations of the Disciplinary committee or reject in total.

ODM has gone further to warn Murkomen that it will not tolerate sideshows saying that it will deal with everything accordingly.
