Candidate announcement
Winnie Odinga’s announcement that she will vie for the Nairobi Senate seat in the 2027 General Election has raised questions about the political future of incumbent Senator Edwin Sifuna.
The East African Legislative Assembly (EALA) legislator announced her bid on Thursday, October 15, during the first anniversary commemoration of her late father, former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, in Bondo, Siaya County.
Winnie explained her decision by pointing to Sifuna’s pursuit of higher political office, saying she saw an opportunity to contest the Nairobi Senate seat.
