V ihiga Senator Godfrey Osotsi at Tononoka ground on March 29, 2026/ BRIAN OTIENOVihiga Senator Godfrey Osotsi has dismissed his removal from the Orange Democratic Movement leadership, saying he does not need a party title to lead. I will be the deputy party leader of Linda Mwananchi,” Osotsi said during a political rally. His remarks come days after ODM delegates dropped him as deputy party leader during a Special Delegates Conference held at Jamhuri Grounds in Nairobi. The convention also ratified Oburu Odinga as party leader, marking a new chapter for ODM following internal restructuring and emerging factional divisions. He further took aim at what he termed “Linda Ruto” and “Linda Ground” factions, claiming some leaders had abandoned the founding ideals of ODM under the late Raila Odinga.
