SIFUNA'S RISE: Uhuru's SECRET Role In The Opposition

Описание: Join Jadiel Kabiro for a hard-hitting, in-depth conversation with political strategist and analyst Benji Ndolo. Recorded at a moment of sharp realignments and rising tension in Kenya’s opposition politics, this episode interrogates the true state of power ahead of the 2027 elections.

The discussion opens with the “Sifuna Wave” — the Sisi Ndiyo Sifuna movement — following the controversial removal of Edwin Sifuna as Secretary-General of Orange Democratic Movement. With the dispute under tribunal challenge and visible splits between Oburu Odinga-aligned leaders and hardline loyalists like James Orengo, Winnie Odinga, and Sifuna himself, Ndolo assesses whether this wave can crystallize into a viable faction—or remain a symbolic protest within a weakening opposition structure.

We then confront the larger question: Is ODM post-Raila Odinga era structurally fractured beyond repair? Has the party lost ideological glue, organizational discipline, and electoral machinery? And why has sustaining cohesion after Baba proven so difficult?

Attention shifts to a high-stakes dilemma: if ODM demands the Deputy Presidency in any pre-2027 arrangement with United Democratic Alliance, how can William Ruto realistically accommodate that without triggering backlash from his UDA base and Mount Kenya allies—especially amid discontent from Kithure Kindiki loyalists? Ndolo breaks down the arithmetic, the egos, and the political risk.

We also examine former President Uhuru Kenyatta’s attempt to reorganize and revive Azimio la Umoja, including the installation of Kalonzo Musyoka as coalition leader. Can Azimio rebrand into a unified anti-Ruto force—or is it recycling old structures without renewed momentum?

Where does Rigathi Gachagua fit into this equation? Could he emerge as a Mount Kenya kingmaker inside a reorganized Azimio? And would a potential Uhuru–Gachagua handshake fundamentally destabilize Ruto’s re-election calculus?

This is strategic, unfiltered political analysis—no slogans, no cheerleading—just a clear-eyed assessment of Kenya’s shifting opposition terrain and the battle lines forming for 2027.
