Nairobi gubernatorial hopeful Tony Gachoka has controversially asserted that the ambitious 10-point agenda championed by ODM has effectively died.

Nairobi gubernatorial hopeful Tony Gachoka has sparked intense political debate by controversially asserting that the ambitious 10-point agenda championed by the Orange Democratic Movement effectively died alongside the political legacy of its leadership.
The implementation of the National Dialogue Committee (NADCO) report, widely known as the 10-point agenda, continues to be a massive flashpoint in Kenyan politics. Born from the ashes of violent nationwide protests, the blueprint was designed to address systemic issues ranging from high living costs to electoral justice.
However, nearly a year after its formation, the committee tasked with bringing these reforms to life has faced crippling apathy, internal sabotage, and fierce public criticism.
Tony Gachoka's scathing remarks underscore a growing sentiment of betrayal among the electorate and the opposition ranks. By declaring that the agenda "ended with Raila's death," Gachoka employed stark political rhetoric to symbolize the perceived demise of Raila Odinga's revolutionary influence within the current broad-based government structure.
The stagnation of the report has infuriated hardline opposition figures. Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna recently launched a blistering attack on the Committee on the Implementation of the Ten-Point Agenda (COIN-10), chaired by Dr. Agnes Zani. Sifuna accused the five-member team of gross laxity, noting they have failed to deliver a single tangible result.
Despite the mounting criticism, the state has vehemently defended the process. Interior Principal Secretary Raymond Omollo recently castigated leaders opposing the NADCO implementation, branding them "enemies of Kenyans."
Speaking at a funeral in Homa Bay County, PS Omollo argued that it "beats logic for someone to oppose an agenda that seeks to address critical challenges the nation has faced." He blamed the delays on external headwinds, including a barrage of court injunctions that have paralyzed the government's ability to compensate victims of police brutality.
The bitter divide over the 10-point agenda highlights the deep trust deficit between the ruling elite and the citizenry. While government aligned officials like Dr. Zani plead for patience—urging Kenyans not to politicize a framework meant to save the country from turmoil—critics like Gachoka view it as a graveyard of broken promises.
As the 2027 electoral permutations begin to take shape, the failure to enact these critical reforms serves as a potent weapon for splinter factions. "They were elected to check power, not serenade it," noted governance expert Willis Otieno. If the 10-point agenda remains dormant, it will cement its legacy not as a blueprint for peace, but as a masterclass in political distraction.
