12.01.2026 ⇢ The Day ODM Aligned with UDA
⌨Morning editorial priority was dominated by Eliud Owalo’s formal resignation from State House to pursue a 2027 presidential bid, a move framed by editors as a rupture within President Ruto’s executive office. While the media followed the viral Nairobi-to-Maasai Mara tour of American streamer iShowSpeed, political coverage quickly pivoted to the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) management meeting in Kilifi.
By midday, editors highlighted a deepening rift within ODM as key figures like Edwin Sifuna boycotted the session. However, the afternoon headlines shifted to a definitive realignment, as the ODM leadership formally endorsed structured coalition talks with Ruto’s UDA for the 2027 elections. This development effectively overshadowed the morning’s focus on Owalo’s defection. The evening cycle consolidated this theme of shifting loyalties, reporting on the UDA’s immediate scheduling of a National Executive Committee meeting to ratify the new pact with their former rivals.
