  • Kisii senator Richard Onyonka has called out the ODM party for remaining silence as government allegedly carries out abductions on supposed critics.

Richard Onyonka, a prominent member of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), has publicly criticized his party for its silence on the recent abductions of opposition supporters in Kenya. In an interview with Citizen TV, Onyonka expressed his disappointment with ODM's leadership, particularly highlighting the lack of response from Raila Odinga, the party leader, regarding the abductions. He pointed out that the party has not issued any statements or taken any actions to address these human rights violations, which he believes are politically motivated. Onyonka's comments come at a time when there is growing concern over the government's handling of opposition figures, with several high-profile cases of abductions and detentions without due process being reported. His critique underscores a broader call for accountability and protection of democratic rights within the political sphere in Kenya.
