Kisumu MCAs have gone on a Sh15 million retreat in Arusha, Tanzania, for what they termed a ‘bonding session’. This comes as other elected leaders and aspirants in the Nyanza region are participating in voter mobilisation. According to a source at the county assembly who sought anonymity, the retreat was organised by speaker Ann Adul and seconded by executive Ben Opiyo. “As Cord leader Raila Odinga is crisscrossing the county mobilising people to register as voters, they are busy enjoying themselves in Arusha,” one resident said. “Nothing comes out of these retreats most of the time, so why go for them,” he said.
