President William Ruto on Saturday evening joined ODM leaders and founding members at the ODM Founders Dinner in Mombasa, a key highlight of the ODM@20 celebrations.
The gathering brought together long-serving party stalwarts and current officials to reflect on two decades of the party’s role in shaping Kenya’s governance, reforms, and political development. The dinner also served as a tribute to the late party leader Raila Odinga, whose influence continues to anchor national political discourse.
President Ruto praised Raila’s contribution to Kenya’s democracy, saying:
“As we celebrate 20 years of the Orange Democratic Movement, we also honour the life and legacy of its leader, the late Honourable Raila Odinga.”
He further underscored the importance of strong, value-driven political institutions, noting:
“May ODM continue to inspire us to build and stand behind, robust, progressive national political parties that serve as a bedrock of our democracy, driving politics of ideology rather than ethnicity or division.”
