A bold claim by Junet Mohamed has thrown ODM politics into fresh turmoil after he openly suggested that some of the party's top leaders are pursuing personal ambitions rather than fighting for the party's future.
His explosive remarks have ignited fresh debate at a time when political tensions within ODM continue to attract national attention.
Junet did not hold back as he claimed that everyone is looking after their own interests, including Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna and Siaya Governor James Orengo.
According to him, some leaders were hoping to secure Cabinet positions but were left out, while others are allegedly positioning themselves to inherit Raila Odinga's political influence.
The remarks quickly sparked reactions online, with supporters and critics interpreting them in different ways.
While some agreed that internal competition has become more visible within ODM, others argued that Junet's comments could deepen divisions inside the party at a sensitive political moment.
His statement stunned supporters and critics alike because Sifuna and Orengo have recently taken positions that have generated discussion about the party's direction and its relationship with the Kenya Kwanza administration.
Junet's comments have now added another layer of speculation over what could be happening behind closed doors.
Many were left questioning what happens next as pressure continues to mount on ODM leaders to demonstrate unity. Whether Junet was exposing uncomfortable truths or simply expressing his personal opinion remains a matter of public debate.
One thing is certain: his remarks have reignited conversations about succession, loyalty, and the future of ODM. As the political temperature continues to rise, all eyes will be on the party's top leadership to see whether these cracks widen or are quickly sealed.
