‘Sifuna Demanded Ksh300 Million For Broad-Based Gov’t Partnership!’ – Oscar Sudi Claims
According to Kapseret Member of Parliament Oscar Sudi, the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party Secretary General, Edwin Sifuna, sought Ksh300 million to join the broad-based administration.
Sudi, speaking in Moiben, Uasin Gishu County, on Friday, July 25, criticized Sifuna for allegedly attempting to undermine President Willian Ruto’s collaboration with former Prime Minister Raila.
He said that the Nairobi Senator is upset because he was not included as a beneficiary in the broad-based agreement, which was publicly adopted in March this year.
While criticizing the ODM Secretary General, Sudi referred to Sifuna as a ‘political broker’ for reportedly asking an excessive amount in exchange for government backing.
“I want to tell my brother Sifuna, the President and former Prime Minister Raila Odinga met and agreed to work together,” said Sudi.
“Sifuna is bitter because he was not part of the panel that drafted the agreement. Dear Sifuna, there was no panel that sat down and drafted the agreement,” he added.

“It is Raila who sat down with the President and agreed to work together. What I know is that you asked for Ksh300 million.”
Sudi stated that despite Sifuna’s purported extreme and offensive request, the administration did not comply.
The member stressed that Ruto’s administration would not succumb to such intimidatory demands.
According to the legislator, the government’s primary goal was to improve Kenyan citizens’ lives by providing healthcare, education, and other essential services.
“I want to tell Sifuna that the government can’t give him such an amount of money without any viable reason, let him continue ranting,” the MP reiterated.
During the rally, Sudi expressed his support for the broad-based government, noting that Odinga’s desire to collaborate with the Head of State was largely for Kenyans’ benefit.

Meanwhile, Sudi’s statements came just days after the Nairobi Senator accused Ruto’s administration of failing to carry out the conditions of the broad-based agreement.
In an interview with Citizen TV, Sifuna warned that ODM’s continuous participation with the Kenya Kwanza government could jeopardize the party’s political future.
“If we stick with this government until 2027 without preparing the party, we’ll lose the chance to explain to Kenyans what we were doing with Ruto all this time,” Sifuna cautioned.
Experts now believe that Sifuna’s recent words were part of a scheme by the former Prime Minister to maintain contact with the opposition while still benefiting from the current dictatorship.
