” However, the change of title will not affect the functions and roles of the current office bearer (Hon. Junet Mohammed) and his deputies (Hon. Mishi Mboko, Mr. Bob Njagi and Mr. Daniel Ole Osoi).

“This is contrary to reports appearing in a local daily today claiming that by changing the title, the party has demoted the bearer of the office and the deputies.

” The proposal will be presented to the National Governing Council (NGC) for further deliberations, Oduor Ong’wen, Executive Director ODM said in the press statement.
