Kalonzo Declines ODM Anniversary Invite

Speaking in Nairobi, Kalonzo, who announced his 2027 presidential bid, wished ODM well but said he would not attend. He predicted President William Ruto would serve only one term, drawing a comparison to Malawi’s Lazarus Chakwera. He added that Wiper plans to field candidates in several upcoming parliamentary and county assembly by-elections.
