Speaking during a rally in Moiben, Uasin Gishu County on Friday, Sudi accused Sifuna, who also serves as Secretary General of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), of trying to commercialize the ongoing political collaboration between President William Ruto and former Prime Minister Raila Odinga.
"I want to tell my brother Sifuna that the agreement between the President and Raila was personal. There was no formal panel involved. Sifuna is just bitter because he was left out," said Sudi.
According to the Kapseret MP, Sifuna allegedly made the outrageous KSh300 million demand in exchange for his support of the broad-based agreement but was rebuffed by both parties.
“He wanted money for himself. But this government is not here to bribe people. We are focused on delivering healthcare, education, and service to Kenyans,” Sudi added.
The MP labelled Sifuna a “political broker” whose recent criticism of the Kenya Kwanza regime was rooted in frustration over being sidelined.
“He keeps ranting on TV, but the truth is he’s just annoyed that he wasn’t brought in to eat,” Sudi said pointedly.
Sifuna recently appeared on Citizen TV, where he openly questioned the direction of ODM’s collaboration with Ruto’s government.
“If we stick with this government until 2027 without preparing the party, we’ll lose the chance to explain to Kenyans what we were doing with Ruto all this time,” Sifuna warned during the interview.
His comments stirred political waters and raised questions over ODM’s strategy ahead of the 2027 elections.
Analysts now believe Sifuna may be walking a tightrope — trying to appease opposition supporters while not fully severing links with the ruling administration.
Meanwhile, Raila Odinga has remained silent on Sifuna’s remarks, instead continuing to push the unity agenda.
During a recent event in Jomvu, Mombasa, he reiterated the need for political tolerance and development-focused partnerships.
