Writes Leo Odera Omolo In MigoriTown.

The inter-communal relations between the Luo and their minority Kuria neighbors with whom they two communities are sharing the devolution governance of Migori County is cordial and very warm.

The two communities are forging ahead with the real task of development after the County governor Zachary Okoth Obado had instituted his executives committee for the County.

This followed the swearing in of the County Speaker a Mr Gordon Ogola, a Nairobi based lawyer and the deputy speaker.

The former chairman of the defunct Awendo Town Council Johnson Omolo Owiro who is representing Central Sakwa in the regional legislative body was elected the leader of the majority while Daniel Okello clinched the leadership of the minority.

The assembly members categorically denied there was tension between the two communities. Out County has taken off and what we are aiming for is the real task of nation building said Representative Johnson Omolo

Representatives said the reported tension was the figment work and imaginations of some NGOs operating in the area who are sowing the seeds of discord.
