Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga was forced to intervene and allow Kabondo Kasipul MP Silvance Osele to address the consultative meeting in Oyugis after youths threatened to cut short his speech.
Osele had been invited to address the meeting before youths demanded that he leave the meeting and should not be allowed to speak accusing him of disloyalty.
The youths surged in front of the dais to drag the youthful MP out of the venue before Odinga came to his rescue and pleaded with the youth to desist from their action and allow Osele to address the meeting.
He explained that the meeting was meant for all ODM elected leaders in the ODM elected leaders and the youth had no right to dictate on who should talk or not.
“This is bad and lack of respect, I invited all the ODM leaders and I don’t expect the youth to dictate this meeting, I can’t allow that,” said Raila.
Eventually the youths calmed down and allowed Osele to address the meeting even though in an uncomfortable environment.
Osele is among the MPs who have been allegedly accused of being moles in ODM party.
Osele was recently quoted saying that Nairobi Governor Evans Kidero is ripe to lead the Luo community, something that did not go well with most area residents and leaders allied to the former PM.
