The declaration comes at a critical time for the movement, as Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna has also been heavily tipped by a faction of key supporters to run for the nation’s top seat in 2027.
Orengo’s announcement is now perceived by political analysts and supporters alike as a move that could ignite internal rivalries over the movement’s presidential ticket.
Following the development, a section of aggrieved supporters and Kenyans associating with the movement have called on Senator Sifuna to take immediate action.
Frustrated by what they view as an attempt to derail Sifuna’s political trajectory, supporters are now urging the Nairobi lawmaker to step away from Orengo’s political shadows, form his own political party immediately, and forge an independent path to the presidency in 2027.
The Linda Mwananchi movement, which initially positioned itself as a unified front to champion governance, accountability, and citizen rights, now faces its biggest political test.
With rival ambitions spilling into the public arena, observers are eagerly watching to see how Senator Sifuna responds to the growing calls to part ways with Orengo and launch an independent presidential vehicle ahead of the next general election.
