In about three weeks, former Prime Minister Raila Odinga's Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party will turn 20.
The opposition party has been in existence since 2005 when it was formed after a successful campaign to defeat proposed constitutional changes in a referendum.
Facing growing competition for its traditional bases, the party plans to show its might in Western Kenya, a region that has largely supported Raila's four recent presidential bids.
Today, 10,000 delegates will converge at the Bukhungu stadium in Kakamega in a convention that will bring together the party's leaders from Western Kenya, as Raila seeks to ring-fence his control of the region.
