Mbadi cherche à renforcer son influence dans la région de Nyanza après le décès de Raila

Le ministre des Finances, John Mbadi, semble consolider sa position politique dans la région de Nyanza suite au décès de Raila Odinga. Ses récentes déclarations l'ont mis en porte-à-faux avec certains dirigeants du ODM.

Lors d'une réunion du ODM à Mombasa le 4 mai, Mbadi a déclaré qu'il ne briguera aucun siège politique lors des élections générales de 2027. Il a défendu ses propos en soulignant que chacun est libre de les interpréter à sa guise. Vendredi dernier, il a été investi en tant que gardien de la branche de Nairobi du Conseil des anciens Luo. Cette démarche est perçue comme faisant partie de sa stratégie pour consolider son influence politique à travers la région de Nyanza. Ces derniers mois, il a assisté à des funérailles et à des événements politiques dans toute la région en hélicoptère, tout en cherchant à obtenir du soutien pour le président Ruto en vue du scrutin de 2027.
