  Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party is set to be bludgeoned back to the drawing board against the wish of the broad-based government arrangement. Severe cracks have been witnessed within the party as it celebrates its 20th anniversary. Siaya Governor James Orengo dropped the bombshell and said he is ready to go back to the street and won't entertain being in the current government. Orengo blasted some ODM members who were of the opinion that the party needed the support of Ruto. "There are people in the party behaving as if ODM needs Ruto, it is Ruto that needs ODM because he has failed," Orengo claimed. His views were echoed by Winnie Odinga.  "ODM was born from protest, it was raised in resistance and the people of ODM have time and time again bled, sweat and shed tears for this country called Kenya," Winnie Odinga said.

Overcoming Financial Struggle to achieve sustainable Financial Freedom

 Financial freedom is practically achieved when the cash flow exceeds living expenses by a wide margin. To achieve financial freedom, you have to learn how to manage risks instead of avoiding them. Munroe once stated that: "The poorest man in the world is a man without dreams in life. The most disappointed man in the world is the man whose dreams has not come true." Success is inspired by a dream, then desire and the ability to overcome disappointments on failure to meet your financial obligations.
