Together with Okiya Omtata they formed the March 4 movement which was supposed to lead a series of  protest against the Jubilee win but failed as soon as it started. Mr. Owalo hit headlines after he was grilled for hours by the CID.

It remains to be seen how this will affect the alredy troubled ODM and by extension CORD
