The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party will hold a Central Committee meeting on Monday, October 27, 2025.
Speaking on Thursday, October 23, ODM Deputy Party leader Abdulswamad Nassir said the meeting will be chaired by acting ODM leader Oburu Odinga.
The Mombasa Governor noted that the meeting will deliberate on 3 main issues, including the upcoming by-elections, the ODM at 20 celebrations, and updates on the 10-point agenda signed by ODM and UDA parties.
“There will be a meeting on Monday, chaired by Dr. Oburu Odinga, who is the acting party leader. The agenda of the meeting will have three items. The first agenda item will focus on the upcoming by-elections, since our opponents currently hope that we will fall apart and fail to secure victory.
“The second agenda item will be the ODM 20th anniversary celebrations, and the third will be to get an update on the progress of the ten issues we agreed with the government,” said Governor Nassir.
He went on to say the ODM will honour Raila’s legacy by ensuring the party is successful in the by-elections and the 10-point agenda with the government is actualized.
At the same time, Governor Nassir said the ODM party leadership will have a Parliamentary group meeting to address the internal conflicts within the party and agree on the way forward.

“After the Central Committee has met, we will convene ODM Members of Parliament, Senators, and Governors together with the party leadership so that we can agree on the direction we should take,” the ODM Deputy Party leader added.
The meeting comes a week after ODM leader Raila Odinga passed away after suffering a cardiac arrest during a morning walk at an Ayurvedic treatment facility in India.
The former Prime Minister was laid to rest on Sunday, October 19, at his ancestral home in Kang’o Ka Jaramogi, Bondo, Siaya County.
On October 16, the ODM National Executive Committee (NEC) appointed Oburu to be the acting party leader.
This followed a meeting in which the NEC members unanimously agreed to have Oburu take up the leadership role in an acting capacity.
“The National Executive Committee (NEC) has this morning met and unanimously endorsed the designation of the Senator of Siaya County, Dr. Oburu Oginga, as the Acting Party Leader. This appointment takes effect immediately,” ODM announced.
