Linda Mwananchi Movement has warned of daily protests outside the Office of the Registrar of Political Parties (ORPP) if its attempt to register as a political party is not resolved, according to local media. The movement’s leader, Vihiga Senator Godfrey Osotsi, made the threat during a public meeting in Busia County on August 7, 2026. The protests are intended to pressure authorities to approve the registration of the movement, which has been pending for some time.
Osotsi accused the government of making deliberate efforts to block the registration of the movement. This claim was reported by eastleighvoice.co.ke, which cited the senator’s remarks during the event. The movement has been seeking recognition as a formal political entity, which would allow it to participate in future elections and political processes.
The ORPP has not yet responded to the threat, but the situation has raised concerns about the political landscape in the region. The movement’s actions highlight ongoing tensions between grassroots organizations and government institutions. The outcome of this dispute could have significant implications for the political future of the area.
