Junet mocks new parties, says matching ODM’s strength could take 40 years

Suna East Member of Parliament (MP) Junet Mohamed has taken a swipe at emerging political parties, warning that building a national political movement comparable to the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) could take decades.Speaking in Mbale, Vihiga County, during a consultative meeting with ODM Party grassroots leaders on Saturday, October 10, 2026, Junet urged political leaders seeking to establish new parties to remain in ODM, arguing that the party had taken years of struggle and organisation to establish roots across the country.
