Sifuna
highlighted alarming social media reports falsely claiming Odinga's death, which
his family and ODM officials swiftly dismissed, confirming he's recovering from
illness and resting on medical advice. He questioned the lack of action against
such misinformation and accused the government of hiring bloggers to spread
falsehoods and attack opponents.
This comes days after Sifuna launched as
leader and 2027 presidential candidate for The Equitable Party (TEP), sparking
supporter enthusiasm despite warnings from Anglican Bishop David Kodia about
further ODM divisions.
