The Orange Democratic Movement has called on the Kenya Kwanza administration to fully honor the Raila–Ruto 10-point deal, insisting that the government must demonstrate seriousness and consistency in implementing the agreed reforms before the 2027 polls.
Party Leader Dr. Oburu Oginga, speaking at Chungwa House, stated that ODM is firmly committed to the Broad-Based arrangement and expects the government to fulfill its obligations without delay.
According to Dr. Oburu:
“The government should work hard to implement the 10-Point Agenda, including the full implementation of the NADCO Report before August 2027. The party is united and strong it should not be taken for granted by anyone.”
Key Components of the 10-Point Agenda
The Raila–Ruto agreement was structured to ensure political stability, electoral justice, and inclusive governance. ODM wants full implementation of:
-
NADCO Report recommendations
-
Electoral reforms to guarantee credible 2027 polls
-
Institutional strengthening for independent bodies
-
Economic and governance commitments outlined in the deal
-
Frameworks for national unity and political cooperation
ODM argues that these reforms are essential for free, fair, and peaceful elections.
A Strong, United ODM Ahead of 2027
During the event, Dr. Oburu stressed that ODM remains cohesive and robust as it prepares for the next political cycle. He warned against attempts to undermine or underestimate the party, saying ODM will continue to defend its position in Kenya’s political landscape.
His remarks serve as a reminder that the party remains a key pillar within the Broad-Based arrangement and expects equal respect and accountability from its partners.
Chungwa House Hosts Newly Elected MPs
Dr. Oburu delivered his message while hosting three newly elected Members of the National Assembly at the ODM headquarters:
-
Hon. Boyd Were (Kasipul)
-
Hon. Moses Omondi (Ugunja)
-
Hon. Harrison Kombe (Magarini)
The three MPs are set to be sworn in this afternoon, reaffirming ODM’s continued growth and influence in Parliament.
Why ODM Is Increasing Pressure Now
With the 2027 General Election approaching, ODM maintains that early and complete implementation of the 10-point deal is crucial to:
-
Ensure a level electoral playing field
-
Avoid rushed or selective reforms
-
Strengthen public confidence in the political process
-
Maintain stability within the Broad-Based arrangement
The party insists that the government must demonstrate goodwill by acting decisively and transparently.
ODM’s renewed call for the full implementation of the Raila–Ruto 10-point deal signals intensifying political expectations ahead of the 2027 elections. As the party hosts new MPs and reinforces its unity, leadership, and influence, its message to the government is clear: deliver the reforms, honor the agreement, and uphold the commitments made to the Kenyan people.
