Mumias East Member of Parliament Peter Salasya has launched a scathing attack on the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), warning Kenyans against placing their trust in the party and accusing it of betraying public confidence.
In a statement shared on X on Friday, February 13, 2026, Salasya claimed that ODM no longer represents the interests of ordinary citizens, but instead operates as a political vehicle focused on exploitation rather than delivering meaningful solutions.
“Trust ODM politics at your own peril. ODM ni mkebe wa kimbo wa kunasa Wakenya, a sell-out party that has got no vision, no idea but to steal from Kenyans. Wacha ODM ikufe,” Salasya said.
The legislator also urged President William Ruto to take decisive steps to neutralise the party’s influence ahead of the 2027 General Election, arguing that its continued presence undermines genuine political progress.
Salasya’s remarks come amid ongoing political tensions and public debate over ODM’s internal leadership disputes and its role in the country’s political landscape. His criticism adds to the growing political discourse as leaders position themselves and their parties ahead of the next electoral cycle.
The outspoken MP has in recent months emerged as a vocal critic of established political formations, frequently using social media platforms to challenge party leadership and national political direction.
Despite the criticism, ODM remains one of Kenya’s major political parties, with a significant support base across several regions. The latest remarks highlight the intensifying political rivalry and shifting alliances as the country moves closer to the 2027 elections.
