Without mentioning specific individuals, Millie posted a strong and somewhat cryptic message that many interpreted as a direct response to critics predicting the party’s collapse.
She appeared confident that ODM remains solid despite the visible disagreements among some of its members.
Her remarks come at a sensitive time for the party. ODM has been going through a period of uncertainty following the death of its long-serving leader, Raila Odinga.
Raila had led the party since its formation in 2005 and was widely seen as its unifying figure.
Since his passing, debates have emerged within ODM over its future direction, leadership structure, and relationship with the government.
Some members have supported cooperation with the current administration, while others believe the party should remain firmly in opposition.
These differing views have fueled public speculation about divisions within the party.
However, Millie’s message suggested that internal discussions should not be mistaken for disintegration.
She implied that political parties naturally go through moments of adjustment, especially after losing a long-standing leader.
Supporters of ODM argue that the party has strong grassroots networks and experienced leaders who can steer it forward.
They believe that while the absence of Raila Odinga is deeply felt, the party’s foundation remains intact.
Critics, on the other hand, maintain that ODM is at a crossroads and must quickly resolve internal differences to maintain its influence in national politics.
