Writes Leo Odera Omolo In Homa-Bay Town
THE Homa-Bay County governor Cyprian Otieno Awiti has completed nomination and vetting of members of the Assembly committee comprising of seven individual talented men and three women.
The governor, however, faced serious accusation and allegations that two of the women nominated to the Assembly executive governing committee are known for political activities and long time social associates of senior ODM leadership in the region.
Mrs Consilata Yambo Migowa from Gwasssi will head waters services and environment, Ms Dorothy Atieno Okello will head Tourism, culture and Sports, Ms Beatrice A.Olomo will head housing physical planning,Nicholas Obuya Koriko will head the Finance and Economic Planning,
Also included in the County cabinet is Phrase Ogweno Ratego from Rusinga Island who will head the Natural Resources, Dr Odiwuor David Okeyo will be in-charge of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries, Dr. Lawrence Odong will take care of Health Services , Naphutally Matta will head Education, Information Communication and Technology and Eliud Otieno Ochieng is to head Transport and Infrastructure.
Governor Awiti was away and could not be reached to clarify the claims that his cabinet is dotted by women of low immorality who have been associating socially with some of the former ODM party Big-Wigs.
On two occasions his phone No 0722 539627 rang , but he promised he would contact this writer, but never called again.
Political pundits and local observers felt that only Mrs Consilata Yambo Migowa is fit to sit in the cabinet, but others two would fail to pass the immorality test.
