Video of Gicheru’s Body Being Taken From His Home; Ruto Sets Condition For Giving Raila Role in His Govt & Karua’s Response To SC Judgment Sparks Wild Reactions

Good morning,

Over the last few weeks, Azimio la Umoja coalition has been facing a myriad of problems as rising tensions within the camp threaten to tear apart the once mega political outfit.

Firstly, the coalition’s largest party, ODM, is glaring at disunity after some of its key members waged a war against the alliance’s leadership demanding rewards for their loyalty and sacrifice.

Embakasi East MP Babu Owino and Narok senator, Ledama Ole Kina, argued that the party failed to recognize their allegiance when dishing out house leadership positions and vowed to withdraw their loyalty if the status quo is maintained.

Moreover, Nominated MP John Mbadi, who was eyeing the National Assembly majority leader, sensationally protested the party’s decision to bypass him in favor of Ugunja MP Opiyo Wandayi.

To add insult to injury, Wiper leader, Kalonzo Musyoka, is reportedly now charting his own path as he is in the process of rolling out his presidential campaign to face off with President William Ruto in 2027.

Do you think Kalonzo is capable of mounting a successful campaign and denying Ruto his second term in 2027? Could the latest infightings within Azimio be the end of the coalition?

Meanwhile, here are the stories making headlines on Opera News today:
