Budalang’i Member of Parliament Ababu Namwamba and Funyula Member of Parliament Dr Paul Otuoma have resigned from Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leadership. Namwamba was the ODM secretary general while Otuoma was the party vice chairman.
This comes after a political storm that was witnessed within ODM following a rift between vice chairman Paul Otuoma and secretary general Ababu Namwamba on one side and the party chairman John Mbadi and other ODM leaders from Nyanza region on the other. Otuoma and Namwamba had initially threatened to mobilize ODM MPs from Western Region to quit and find a new party, claiming they were being sidelined.
CORD leader Raila Odinga held a meeting recently with ODM MPs from Western region with an aim of solving wrangles within the party. Rebellion in ODM sparked by western Kenya MPs deepened after a lobby group dared Secretary General Ababu Namwamba to leave the party.
