Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna has recalled the day he was appointed the Secretary General of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM).
In an update on Sunday, February 23, Sifuna reflected on his journey at the helm of the party, attributing his success to following the example set by his predecessor, the late Otieno Kajwang.
"Time does fly when you are having fun. It’s 7 years to the day today! It’s very easy to be the SG of ODM. You just need to follow the blueprint left by Gerald Otieno Kajwang. Loyalty. Fidelity. Faithfulness. Easy as ABC," he wrote.

This comes hours after Makadara MP George Aladwa lashed out at Sifuna, warning that he could be kicked out of the position soon.
Speaking on Saturday, February 22, Aladwa said Sifuna's days in the ODM party are numbered, noting that he would be ejected like his predecessor Ababu Namwamba.
"I want to warn Sifuna, the one calling himself the Secretary General of ODM. We've had many Secretary Generals before; he's not the first. Ababu left, and he will also leave. He should completely stay away from me. I see he has insulted me a lot, but I want to tell him that his days in ODM are numbered,” he said.
Aladwa went on to claim that Sifuna is being used by former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, alleging that Sifuna has joined Gachagua’s faction and that he is being fronted for a gubernatorial seat.
“The same Sifuna is being used by Gachagua. Even during the impeachment, he caused trouble and voted reluctantly. We know that he is Gachagua’s candidate for the governor seat. Even last week but one, he was with Gachagua, Waititu, and Kalonzo in Kawangware.
“We wish him all the best, as we know he has already left ODM. He should stop deceiving people that he is still the Secretary-General, he has already joined Gachagua’s team,” he added.
