In a statement, the party said that there is no such meeting.
โThere is no such meeting today. Good day.โ
This was in response to a post alleged to a digital card claiming that the meeting was to strategise on the impeachment, despite public discontent with the current administration.
A quick check by The Star, however, revealed that Nation had also flagged the post.
โBeware of fake news! If itโs not on our official social media pages, itโs fake,โ the daily said on X.
This comes even as the National Assembly is set to debate Gachaguaโs impeachment motion on Tuesday.
ODM deputy party leader and Kisii Governor, Simba Arati last week said the party had nothing to do with the DPโs removal from office.
Speaking on Friday after meeting Migori ODM delegates at the Lichota Show Ground, Arati said what is happening in the impeachment process is the prerogative and mandate of Parliament.
He affirmed that Parliament will assess, evaluate and give a verdict on the impeachment motion as directed by the country’s laws.
He, however, noted that ODM will support and respect the outcome of both houses of Parliament because they have a right to do soโฆCLICK HERE TO READ MORE ARTICLES>>>
