Saturday May 1, 2021 -Senator James Orengo and MP Otiende Amollo are under siege in tier area after irate youth stormed and disrupted their meeting.
Reports which Homenews.co.ke received on Saturday May 1 morning indicated that goons invaded their meeting with stones.
This occurred when the two leaders who are currently pushing for changes in the BBI before a final referendum were attending an afternoon event in Siaya County.
Sources however have informed our writer that everything was going on well until one local aspirant raised concerns about being sidelined. He was allegedly denied an opportunity to address.
“The locals were demanding that I had to address them before the senator spoke so I went to the podium thinking that following the demands, the senator would allow me to address the locals after the area MP ignored me.
“I didn’t even take a minute at the podium, the next thing I heard was a gunshot from behind, and everyone started to run for safety in all directions. We didn’t know what was happening. I ran to my car as others ran for safety wondering who made the shot,” Ochogo informed the media.
Rarieda MP has since accused the aspirant of fueling chaos in the area which he said will set bad precedence headed into 2022.
“When everything erupted we were forced to flee for safety as the goons were stoning the chopper…He tried to cause chaos, we dint want to be part of it, we went to the chopper and left,” he said.
Police are yet to release an official statement over the matter.
