ODM communications director Philip Etale urged party leaders to resolve internal conflicts through private channels rather than public confrontations. He criticized leaders who engage in social media disputes with party members. Etale recommended convening executive committee meetings to address problematic behavior among members. His advice follows recent tensions within the Democratic Action Party of Kenya. Party leader Eugene Wamalwa publicly confronted his deputy, George Natembeya, and MP Peter Salasya over alleged coup attempts.

Wamalwa invited both politicians to compete fairly for leadership positions through internal democratic processes. The party subsequently organized a National Executive Committee meeting to address these disputes. Political analysts warn that public disagreements between party officials damage voter confidence and weaken organizational unity. They emphasize that parties with strong internal dialogue systems survive longer than those dependent on individual personalities. As the 2027 general election approaches, effective dispute resolution mechanisms and internal discipline will determine party success and voter appeal.
