Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party Leader Raila Odinga on Sunday warned of a possible disintegration of the 19-year-old political outfit following vicious factional battles due to succession politics.

Nairobi — Orange Democratic Movement party Leader Raila Odinga on Sunday warned of a possible disintegration of the 19-year-old political outfit following vicious factional battles due to succession politics.

Succession wars in the opposition outfit have been linked to the imminent postponement of the grassroots elections following Odinga's interest in pursuing the African Union Commission Chairperson post. "There could be some challenges with us holding the grassroots elections in April because our elections committee is not in place but that's the party's decision next week," he told reporters in Parliament.

The vicious succession struggle is said to have spilled to the grassroots elections which are likely to be postponed. ODM Secretary-General Edwin Sifuna said all party elections shall be managed at the county level with two elections coordinators; one male and one female in charge of each county.
