Political Storm in Homa Bay: Governor, MP, and Deputy in Power Struggle

Homa Bay County Political Tensions Rise Amidst Allegations of Dealings Between MP Ong'ondo Were and Governor Gladys Wanga. A recent TV47 report sheds light on the complex relationship between MP Ong'ondo Were and Governor Gladys Wanga in the Rachuonyo district of Homa Bay County, Kenya. The report suggests that MP Were served as a key point person for the Governor, but this alliance may have come at a cost, potentially jeopardizing the position of Deputy Governor Joseph Oyugi Magwanga. Samuel Owida, Comms Advisor to DG Magwanga, stated, "He has a strong hold politically; he's a force to reckon with." However, Billy Odiamo, MCA-West Kamagak, Kasipul, offered a more nuanced perspective, suggesting that while Were holds influence, it's not as pervasive as some believe. Deputy Governor Magwanga himself addressed the situation, mentioning threats and the possibility of impeachment. The video underscores the intricate political landscape of Homa Bay and the potential ramifications of these alleged relationships.
