WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE UNPOPULARITY OF ODM KAKAMEGA? Those pretending to be revamping ODM KAKAMEGA are the very fellows who have MURDERED or SUFFOCATED it on the grassroots as hereunder; 👁. Deputy Party Leader Wycliffe Oparanya is the mastermind of death of ODM's popularity in 1497 polling stations, 60 subbranches and 12 branches of Kakamega. Upon his election as Governor of Kakamega DPL OPARANYA established a parallel structure to ODM Kakamega known as FRIENDS OF OPARANYA composed of political brokers and mercenaries cutting across various political parties DOMICILED in Kakamega. Mr Oparanya funds this amorphous structure to ODM using public money seconded to his office. The structure has paid coordinators from the County headquarters upto 1497 polling stations and yet ODM leadership in the County has been abandoned.

Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) seeks to obtain Ksh473 million from a publication belonging to Lugari MP Ayub Savula over claims of unpaid taxes accruing from a period of four years. Reports show that Savula's publication, Sunday Publishers, had secured contracts between 2013 and 2017- the stipulated period in question.

He confirmed to the court that he had paid Ksh3 million and was willing to pay another Ksh3 million to the tax authority.
