In Siaya, Senator James Orengo, Ugunja MP Opiyo Wandayi and former Rarieda MP Nicholas Gumbo are lining up to take over Rasanga’s seat. Orengo says the poll will not be for the faint-hearted, but it will be free and fair for all contestants. Another fierce political battle is looming in Homa Bay, where some politicians have started grassroots mobilisation to give themselves an edge in the race to replace Awiti. But when the right time comes, I will declare my 2022 political ambitions,” said Wandayi. National Agenda Party of Kenya leader and Nyaribari Masaba MP Ezekiel Machogu is also angling to succeed Ongwae.
