Senator Edwin Sifuna will spearhead a Kenya Moja caucus gathering at Magena Primary School grounds in Kisii County's Bomachoge Borabu Constituency, representing the opposition alliance's first significant public appearance following Raila Odinga's recent passing. The Friday event, organized by MP Obadiah Barongo, centers on a fundraiser supporting widows through a community forum that begins at 11 am.
Legislators from multiple parties will attend, with Senator Richard Onyonka and MPs Babu Owino, Caleb Amisi, Joshua Kimilu, Anthony Kibagendi, Gathoni Wamuchomba, and several others confirming participation. Despite their varied party affiliations, these politicians remain unified in opposing President William Ruto's 2027 reelection bid.
Sifuna and Babu have consistently rejected joining Ruto's administration, with Babu previously endorsing Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka for the presidency. The caucus positions itself as a transformative political force, with Amisi characterizing the movement as a generational shift comparable to historical transitions from colonial rule. Opposition figures seek to replicate the 2002 coalition strategy by rallying behind a single candidate.
