The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party on Sunday, May 28, expelled Siaya Deputy Governor William Oduol from the outfit.

ODM Siaya coordinating committee composed of representatives from all sub-counties within Siaya communicated this decision. The statement released by the party revealed that the basis for Governor James Orengo's deputy expulsion was his association with Kenya Kwanza. The party stated that all leaders elected under the party should observe the party constitution. 

“Siaya government is an ODM government and therefore all elected and appointed officials are expected to operate within strict confines of the party Constitution. A few officials are prosecuting unsubstantiated claims in the media instead of exploring available mechanisms within the party,” a statement from the party read in part.

The committee also communicated changes made to the Gem and Bondo party hierarchy, affirming that the party will not acknowledge the ousted leaders as part of ODM anymore. The ODM party reshuffled the Gem and Bondo leadership due to Kenya Kwanza's infiltration. They expressed worry that Kenya Kwanza was using food tokens to attract ODM leaders to the coalition. 

“This meeting has therefore unanimously resolved that the Siaya Deputy Governor be compelled to resign as the DG Since he no longer subscribes to the ideals and aspirations of the party. The meeting resolved he is expelled and he is hereby expelled from the ODM party membership,” the committee stated

Oduol was ousted two days after making allegations of financial misdeeds by Governor James Orengo and other county assembly members. At a press gathering, the embattled Deputy Governor claimed that the county made withdrawals of up to Sh 6 million a day.

Legally, you cannot abandon the political party that elected you and join another party through coercion or bribery.
All the Jubilee members that joined UDA should be ousted from Jubilee until a new election conducted to fill their vacant seats.

You are reading the wrong book. Oduol was expelled from ODM. The law is clear on this, he is free to join another party, and still retain his position. He can even decide to remain independent, and be the DG. The surprise thing is when our learned friends start behaving like sonko. Imagine governors side stepping their deputies after every election. Even those that were very much involved in the making of the 2010 constitution don't believe in it.
