Omari is challenging the planned meeting, raising questions about its legality and whether the organisers have followed the procedures required under the Political Parties Act.
In his complaint, the lawyer reportedly argues that Sifuna has not formally resigned from the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), despite his involvement in activities associated with the Linda Mwananchi faction.
He also questions the process through which the planned delegates' meeting was organised, arguing that no public notice announcing the National Delegates Conference was issued as required.
Another issue raised in the challenge concerns the constitution being used by the Linda Mwananchi group. Omari argues that the faction is relying on the constitution of the Equitable Party, raising questions about the legal basis on which it intends to conduct its political activities.
The lawyer wants the tribunal to intervene before the November 13 meeting takes place, potentially dealing a major setback to Sifuna and his allies if the application succeeds.
The planned NDC is expected to be an important moment for the group as it seeks to advance its political agenda. However, the legal challenge now puts uncertainty over whether the meeting will proceed as scheduled.
The Political Parties Disputes Tribunal will have to consider the issues raised in the complaint and determine whether there are sufficient legal grounds to stop the planned gathering.
If Omari's application succeeds, the decision could complicate the Linda Mwananchi immediate plans and create further uncertainty around its political direction.
