The ODM party's National Executive Council will meet next week to pick their 2022 flagbearer. Party leader Raila Odinga is expected to fly the flag and the meeting could endorse him and end the speculation about his candidature. Mombasa Governor Ali Hassan Joho and Kakamega's Wycliffe Oparanya have submitted documents for nomination as presidential contenders using the ODM ticket. The deputies to party leader presented nomination papers to the ODM secretariat in March. He said they will support Raila if he will contest and shall advise them on the way forward after the NEC meeting.
