POSITION OF THE SECRETARY GENERAL
The ODM wishes to state as follows with regard to the position of the Secretary General of the party;
1). Hon. Ababu Namwamba who is the Secretary General of the party has not handed in the resignation letter despite news in the media that he has resigned from the post.
2). The appointment of the acting Secretary General of the Party in the event of a vacancy is not a reserve of the Party Leader or any other official of the party. The Central Committee has to meet then make recommendations to the NEC for consideration.
3). If it is true that Mr. Namwamba has resigned as reported in the media and subsequently hands in the resignation letter, the Central Committee will then meet Tuesday 12th July 2016 followed by the NEC meeting on Thursday 14th July 2016 to discuss the matter and make the necessary decision.
Any other information to the contrary should be treated as mere speculation.
Ends…

Its grim reality that useless Babu Raila is a failure in life. The curse he has is that he will never be president, even after all his pathetic struggles.
Raila is a deadman politically, elderly and useless.
In terms of succession, if only he was wise, he could have groomed people like Ababu, Joho, etc.
But a foolishman will never give space to other people. And foolishness is the Raila type of political mentality. He will be buried with ODM, He will never be president.

Free to choose but choices have consequences. Only time will tell.. Behind every weird move, there is always a presumed gainer aka sponsor, Time will reveal who this sponsor is.

It was not lies that he was in state house sometimes back ,kumbe alichotewa ya nguvu kanu iko imara tena na arap kusema na kutenda na Eurobond. Kenya is still far away from solutions of its political problems till 2059.
