Orange Democratic Party has today suspended the list of grassroot elections delegates Dagoreti North Constituency following a dispute lodged by Kilimani MCA Moses Nyagaresi Ogeto.
In a communication to the public the ODM Party Executive Director Oduor Ong’wen noted that the issue is being handled internally through consultations pending final decision.
“Meanwhile the delegates list for the branch should stand suspended pending such resolution. We are confident that both leaders being staunch members of our Party will approach this matter in the spirit of unity and come up with a resolution that strengthens ODM rather than undermines it. Kindly treat this matter with urgency it deserves,” said Ong’wen.
Ogeto argues that most of the grassroot delegates whose names were published by the party did not pay the required fee to participate in the grassroot elections demanding deletion of their names from the list.
“The Party must do due diligence and ensure we have the correct list. Democracy must start with us and that is what Baba and our Party Constitution stands for,” he said.
He further called on his supporters to stay and allow the Party to resolve the matter amicably as directed.
