National Assembly Majority Leader Kimani Ichung’wah and his Minority counterpart Opiyo Wandayi have clashed over the latter’s claim of genocide in Luo Nyanza. “Therefore, the statement by the Leader of Minority is unfortunate coming from anyone who purports to lead anyone or indeed anything,” he said. The Majority Leader was reacting to a statement by Wandayi who claimed occurrences in Nyanza appear to be state-sanctioned genocide in Kisumu, Migori and Homa Bay. Wandayi claimed that in the three counties, people are being pulled out of their houses and shot or clobbered to death by police officers. Wandayi claimed the happenings in Luo Nyanza are way beyond what happened in 1969 or the tribal clashes of 1991/1992.
