The meeting is part of ongoing efforts to strengthen the party’s internal structures and prepare it for future political engagements.
Oburu Odinga, who is also the Siaya County Senator, has been touring different parts of the country to engage ODM members since taking over the party leadership.
His visit to Uasin Gishu, a region traditionally seen as outside ODM’s stronghold, shows the party’s intention to expand its influence and build a stronger national presence.
The delegates’ meeting is expected to bring together ODM officials from various wards and constituencies within Uasin Gishu.
The discussions are focusing on party unity, organization at the grassroots level, and the role of ODM in the current political environment.
Leaders are also expected to share their views on how the party can better connect with voters and address the challenges facing Kenyans.
Speaking to party members, Oburu emphasized the importance of unity and discipline within ODM.
He encouraged delegates to work closely with local communities and ensure the party remains strong, organized, and focused on the needs of ordinary citizens.
He also highlighted the need for respect among party members and open dialogue when addressing internal issues.
The meeting comes at a time when ODM is reassessing its position ahead of the 2027 General Election.
Party leaders believe that engaging delegates directly will help strengthen confidence in the leadership and improve coordination from the grassroots to the national level.
Oburu’s visit is also seen as a sign of ODM’s commitment to inclusive politics.
By reaching out to regions like Uasin Gishu, the party hopes to attract new supporters and show that its agenda is meant for all Kenyans, regardless of region or political history.
Delegates attending the meeting welcomed Oburu’s visit and described it as timely and encouraging. Many said the engagement gave them an opportunity to express their concerns and ideas directly to the party leadership.
