Kakamega Governor Fernandes Barasa has dismissed calls to join the Linda Mwananchi movement, reaffirming his loyalty to ODM. Speaking during the launch of a Sh50 million facelift of Malava Level Four Hospital, he said he would not defect despite pressure from some residents. Barasa also accused Cooperatives CS Wycliffe Oparanya of fueling divisions within ODM in pursuit of a possible running mate slot ahead of next year’s elections.
