He made it clear that as Kenya’s biggest political force, the party will demand its fair share in any future negotiations with the ruling UDA party.
Odinga emphasized that ODM’s role in Kenya’s political landscape is undeniable, and it’s time to shift the balance of power.
"Our party is the biggest party in the country and we cannot be given peanuts. We must get our fair share," he said.
With the 2027 elections on the horizon, he vowed that ODM would approach coalition talks with unwavering strength and determination.
"We are going to do a very tough negotiation," he added, signaling a hardline approach as his party moves into the upcoming political cycle.
His comments reflect an increasing confidence within ODM as they look to position themselves strategically ahead of one of the most anticipated elections in Kenya’s history.
The Senator also stressed the importance of negotiating from a position of strength, making it clear that ODM will no longer accept secondary status in any political alliance.
"In the future, we will negotiate with us from a point of strength," Odinga asserted.
This declaration is sure to stir political conversations, as ODM seeks to reclaim and assert its dominance in Kenyan politics, particularly as the ruling UDA prepares for the challenge of holding onto power in the years to come.
If Odinga’s promises hold true, the 2027 elections may see a significantly different political landscape where the rules of the game are redrawn by the powerful ODM party.
Is Kenya’s political balance about to shift? Only time will tell, but it’s clear that ODM’s game plan is evolving, and the stakes are higher than ever.
