Ugenya Member of Parliament David Ochieng was on Saturday forced to flee from a funeral in his constituency that was attended by former Prime Minister, Raila Odinga. The chaos erupted after an unidentified person allegedly snatched the microphone from the Ugenya MP. The chaos erupted on Sunday during the funeral of former Kenya National Union of Teachers secretary William Ohonde in Ligega Siaya County. Several rounds of ammunition were fired in the air as bodyguards attempted to disperse the crowd that was allegedly charging at the Ugenya legislator. Siaya Governor James Orengo also condemned the chaos saying leaders must carry themselves with decorum wherever they are.
