ODM Central Committee Makes Changes to Party Committees and Organs
Press Release and @TheODMParty
The ODM Central Committee met this morning under the chairmanship of Party Leader, HE Raila Odinga. During a meeting held in Nakuru on July 27 and 28, 2019, the National Executive Committee (NEC) under Article 7.5 of the Party Constitution mandated the Central Committee to reconstitute the Party’s Standing Committees.
Pursuant thereto, the Central Committee has today made the following changes to the membership of the said Committees and organs of the party.
ODM National Elections Board
The NEB has been reconstituted as follows:
- Prof. Catherine Mumma – Chairperson
- Mr. Abudlahi Diriye
- Mr. Richard Tairo
- Ms. Syntei Nchoe
- Ms. Emily Awita
Party National Disciplinary Committee
- Prof. Ben Sihanya – Chairperson
- Mr. Ramadhani M. Abubakar
- Ms. Mumbi Ngaru
- Ms. Seth Kakusye
- Dr. Florence Omosa
The new members of both committees shall hold office for a term of five years. It is our expectation that the new members will begin work immediately ad they find their intrays full.
The new NEB must quickly settle and begin preparations for the Party Grassroots elections. The new Disciplinary Committee likewise is expected to settle down quickly and dispense with urgent pending disciplinary cases involving our MCAs from Nairobi, Bungoma and Nyamira Counties.
These changes have resulted from wide consultation with out membership and we now wish to urge our members across the country to support the new teams as they seek to better the party.
On behalf of the Party we wish to thank all those who served previously on these committee for their dedication and service. We wish to also congratulate the new appointees and wish them the very best as they embark on their work.
Hon. Edwin Sifuna, Secretary-General.
