The meeting comes just a day after the Political Parties Dispute Tribunal (PPDT) issued interim orders restraining the ODM Party from expelling or de-whipping Kisumu Senator Tom Ojienda, Gem MP Elisha Odhiambo, and Langรกta MP Phelix Odiwuor pending hearing and determination of their petition.

The registrar of political parties was also directed not to delist the trio as members of ODM.

The orders were issued after the three legislators filed a petition challenging the disciplinary action taken against them by the ODM party.

On September 9 2023, ODM Party National Executive Council gave the go-ahead for the removal of five legislators from the party.

ODM NECย  instructed the party to remove the rebels from the party register for advancing the interest of rival parties.

On September 12th 2023, The Political Parties Dispute Tribunal suspended the expulsion of the parliamentarians from the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) Party.
