Speaking on Citizen TV on Thursday, February 20, Sifuna reacted to the possibility of Ruto entering into a coalition agreement with the Raila Odinga-led party.

The Nairobi senator revisited his past remarks that Ruto will not be re-elected in 2027 even with the support of the Orange Party.

"As ODM, I'm telling you, and I've said it on this show, and I've said it on this show, My position is, even if ODM supports Ruto, Ruto will still lose. I have said it here, and I repeat it. So, I want to make it very clear, that as a party, we do not support either the internal affairs or the way the external affairs of this country are being run," Sifuna said.

Sifuna ruled out the possibility of a grand coalition between UDA and ODM, insisting that Raila's party will only enter into an alliance with like-minded political parties.

He accused the Kenya Kwanza Alliance of being incompetent and that they failed to manage the affairs of the country.

"Let me make another thing clear. ODM will only enter into alliances with political parties that are like-minded. Political parties that are pro-people. People who can manage a country. You are not going to force us into an alliance with incompetent people. And it has been demonstrated that the Kenya Kwanzaa government is the most incompetent, so far, from independence," Sifuna said.

The outspoken senator insisted that having failed to manage the country's internal and international affairs, Ruto would not win the 2027 presidential race even with Raila's support.

"So, they have mismanaged our country, they have mismanaged our democracy, they have mismanaged our economy, they have now mismanaged our international affairs. Our standing in the community of nations is now in tatters. Ruto will lose that election, with Raila's support," the Nairobi senator declared.
