A group of MPs mainly from Luo Nyanza region, have called on top ODM leaders to desist from public exchange of words. The seven MPs argued that with ODM being one of the largest parties in the country, they are concerned by the spectacle of self- cannibalisation that has been exhibited of late in the ODM party. “We encourage the Party Leader to call for an internal 'spitting session' to avoid the ongoing mud-fest." They argued that the wrangles can only be due to the absence of the party leader, late Raila Odinga. “Even as we appear to self-cannibalise, we can’t help but curiously observe that small parties are aggressively and strategically moving to occupy the spaces previously held by our beloved ODM party.
