Kenyan rapper Henry Ohanga, popularly known as Octopizzo, has slammed the ODM party over losing moral direction due to internal failures rather than outside pressure.
In a statement on Saturday, February 7, 2026, the rapper stated that the movement is slowly breaking down as personal interests are taking priority over shared values and long-term purpose.
“There is something tragic about watching a movement lose its moral compass not because of external enemies, but because of internal appetites. When deception becomes strategy, and handouts become ideology, the web tightens quietly, thread by thread,” he says, warning that even those who design such systems eventually become trapped by them”, Octopizzo stated.
Octopizzo also stated that loyalty with the party has changed.
“Conviction is replaced by calculation. In that shift, confusion thrives. Not the confusion of complexity but the confusion of conscience. A party is not destroyed in a single dramatic moment. It erodes”, the rapper added.
He further claimed that transactional politics is replacing meaningful leadership.
