Nairobi \u2014 Prime Minister Raila Odinga has urged the Orange Democratic Movement top organ to create a credible machinery to oversee the party’s grassroots elections.<\/p>\n

Mr Odinga said the party elections set to kick off on May 27 must create space for the youth, give the party a new face and put structures on the hands of those committed to ODM ideals and willing to defend them.<\/p>\n

In particular, Mr Odinga asked the party to shift focus from the so-called party rebels and apply its mind and energy to ensuring a credible and successful grassroots election that will be a trend setter for other parties.<\/p>\n

He said the elections must leave the party united rather than divided and make it a formidable movement for 2012 election.<\/p>\n

“It must be clear who is in and who is out and only the party membership has the mandate to do this through free, fair and credible elections,” Mr Odinga said.<\/p>\n

The PM, who is also the leader of ODM, spoke at the Party’s Orange House headquarters where he chaired the National Executive Committee meeting.<\/p>\n

He asked the NEC and other party organs to equally begin preparations for a proper national delegates’ convention later in the year.<\/p>\n

The meeting was called to review progress on preparations for the polls.<\/p>\n

He asked the secretariat and other organs to make “proper preparations” for the youth to take positions at all levels of the party.<\/p>\n

The NEC was attended by deputy party leader Musalia Mudavadi, and secretary general Anyang’ Ny’ongo. Other NEC members included ministers Joseph Nyagah, Fred Gumo and Executive Director Janet Ongera.<\/p>\n
