Orange Democratic Party Secretary General Senator Edwin Sifuna has renewed his criticism of the broad-based government.
His remarks come shortly after he outlined ODM’s party resolutions regarding the cooperation agreement between President William Ruto and the late Raila Odinga.
According to the resolutions, ODM had committed to supporting the government until 2027.
Following this period, the party planned to reassess its position and determine the next steps regarding their political engagement with the administration.
Speaking in the Senate, Sifuna expressed strong disapproval of how the broad-based government is functioning.
His comments have generated significant discussion online, with many Kenyans reacting to the senator’s call for greater accountability and adherence to prior agreements.
Sifuna emphasized that the broad-based arrangement should not be used as an excuse for poor governance.
He stressed that government officials must focus on the ten key points agreed upon by Raila Odinga before pursuing any other initiatives.
The senator insisted that President Ruto should implement the commitments outlined in the Raila-led agreement.
According to Sifuna, failing to fulfill these obligations would render the cooperation agreement meaningless, undermining the intentions of the late ODM leader.
He highlighted that the late Raila Odinga’s vision must guide government actions, urging leaders to prioritize the party’s agreed agenda over political maneuvering.
The senator suggested that without completing these priorities, further discussions about future collaboration would be irrelevant.
Sifuna’s remarks come at a time of heightened scrutiny of the Kenya Kwanza administration.
His public statements signal persistent tensions between ODM and the current government, particularly regarding the implementation of agreements made with the late party leader.
The senator’s criticism adds to ongoing debates about accountability and the effectiveness of broad-based governance.
Citizens and political observers have noted that such statements could influence government policy and public perception in the coming months.
