[Denish Ochieng, Standard]The violent assault on Vihiga Senator Godfrey Osotsi in Kisumu has sparked a political storm, reviving long-standing fears that organised goonism is being weaponised in country’s political arena. Chilling CCTV footage obtained from a Kisumu Java House restaurant shows a group of about 20 young men surrounding the senator and questioning his political stance on the “one-term presidency” before beating him. He was later airlifted to Nairobi for specialised treatment.
