ODM Youth Leader Brian Midiwo Oppose Sifuna’s Ouster Amid Party Turmoil

Story by Ayubu John Afrimedia Group news 
 ODM youth leader Hon. Brian Midiwo have come out strongly against the removal of Secretary General Edwin Sifuna, urging the party to resolve its internal differences through dialogue and established structures.
 Speaking at a press conference he expressed concern over the ongoing wrangles within the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), warning that abrupt leadership changes could deepen divisions rather than restore stability.
Midiwo maintained that the youth wing does not support Sifuna’s ouster, terming the move unnecessary at a time when the party should be consolidating unity. He emphasized that disagreements within ODM must be handled democratically and in line with the party constitution.
Mama Ida echoed similar sentiments, calling for calm and restraint among members. She urged party officials to prioritize cohesion, respect institutional processes, and protect the legacy and stability of the movement.
Both leaders described the current turbulence as a defining moment for ODM, appealing to members to avoid actions that could weaken the party ahead of future political engagements.
They called for constructive engagement and internal dialogue to safeguard the party’s unity and long-term strength

Story by Ayubu John photo journalist from Afrimedia Group news   The High Court has dismissed a petition seeking compensation for survivors and families of the August 7, 1998 U.S. Embassy bombing, a decision that has sparked frustration and disappointment among those affected. The petitioners had argued that the Kenyan government ignored prior warnings that could have prevented the attack, which killed over 200 people and injured thousands. In his ruling, Justice Lawrence Mugambi said the petitioners failed to present credible evidence showing the State had actionable intelligence or neglected to act. Many of the reports submitted were ruled hearsay, as the authors did not testify in court. “The burden of proof lies on those who seek the court’s intervention,” Justice Mugambi emphasized.
