Why ODM Partnered with Rutoโs Government
Addressing the political climate, Atandi explained the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) partyโs decision to join the government. He stressed that the move was to ensure national stability and prevent chaos.
“We joined the government to avoid its collapse. Political turmoil has led to chaos in many countries. Our role is to maintain order, enabling progress and the respect of the rule of law,” Atandi said.
The MP also advised government critics to seek change through lawful means, including elections, rather than resorting to protests or property destruction.
“If you want to change the leadership, wait for the elections. Mobilize your supporters, cast your votes, and follow legal procedures to assume power,” he urged.ย ย
