Raila Odinga’s Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party has summoned its 28 members who were absent during voting on the second Reading of Finance Bill 2023, and those that voted for it, saying they had defied the party position and should be punished.
In a letter, ODM Secretary General Edwin Sifuna said the MPs—among them immediate former chairman John Mbadi, Rarieda’s Otiende Amollo and Embakasi East’s Babu Owino—have 48 hours to reply on why action should not be taken against them.
