Faith Apuko has been appointed the acting clerk of the Homa Bay county assembly, a few days after Haningtone Ochieng’ resigned. In a letter to county assembly speaker Elizabeth Ayoo who chairs the county assembly service board, Ochieng said he could not continue with his work in an increasingly volatile environment. The appointment follows a meeting by the county assembly service board held on Tuesday. In a letter seen by the Star, Ayoo said Apuko will act as the assembly clerk until they get a substantive replacement. “The assembly service board members did not want the operations of the assembly to stop due to the resignation of the clerk,” Okello said.
