Homa Bay
deputy governor Hamilton Orata Onyango is said to be scheming to take over as
governor, The Weekly Vision online
has been informed by people close to governor Cyprian Awiti, that their boss recently
received very credible information in regard to his deputy’s activities. The DG
was recently seen emerging from the offices of the Ethics and Anti-corruption
Commission in Kisumu where he had gone to report Mr. Awiti about financial
malpractices said to be the order of the day at the county. The DG has not been in good books with his
boss who has since sidelined him from running of the county.
Reports of
the existence of a murderous and corrupt cartel within the county executive is also
said to have pushed the DG into reporting his boss to the authorities. It is
believed that the DG would be a direct beneficiary in the event that his boss
is arraigned in a court of law. The illegal activities are perpetuated by
people close to Mr. Awiti, the DG is said to have told investigators.
There are
people within the executive who are believed to have had a hand in the brutal
murder of Mr. Donny Opar, County Executive Committee member nominee in charge
of Roads and infrastructure. He was shot dead by three armed gunmen at his
petrol station in Kendu Bay town. Mr. Opar had been approved by the County
Assembly for the position in early April.
He was yet
to take oath of office because Governor Cyprian Awiti who was to preside over
the swearing-in ceremony had been away on medical grounds.
