The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) delegates have elected Kisii County Governor Simba Arati and Mombasa counterpart Abdullswamad Sherrif Nassir as the new deputy party leader.

The two serving governors were elected on Friday, March 27, 2026, following a Special Delegates Convention by the party at Jamhuri Grounds along Ngong Road in Nairobi County.
