A faction led by Kanduyi MP Wafula Wamunyinyi, who was on Sunday announced by the party's special National Executive Council as the party leader, replacing Bungoma Senator Moses Wetang'ula presented their papers to the Registrar of Political Parties Anne Nderitu.
Moments after they had left, a faction allied to Mr Wetang'ula arrived and filed their documents showing that he is still the party leader with Kiminini MP Dr Chris Wamalwa as secretary-general, replacing Tongaren MP Dr Eseli Simiyu.
Today we filed the returns of the NEC meeting with the office of the political parties' registrar as required by the law," Dr Simiyu said.
But Dr Wamalwa disputed the claims by Dr Simiyu saying Mr Wetang'ula remains the party leader.
On Monday, Dr Wamalwa in a statement signed by 21 MPs from Western region, accused ODM leader Raila Odinga of bringing chaos in political parties.
