Bonchari MP: Modest leader who lived up to his promises

In 2019, when President Uhuru Kenyatta landed at the Kisii High School aboard a Kenya Air Force aircraft, an MP had arrived earlier in a cab to join locals in welcoming him.
But the president’s security detail would not let the taxi in and the MP had to alight and walk into the school compound. He did not even have a bodyguard.
It was the Bonchari MP John Oyioka
(pictured). He was that unassuming and carried himself with no self-importance.
Stood out
Such was the simplicity of the humble MP who died last week aged 69. Averse to controversy and confrontational politics, Oyioka stood out among his colleagues. He was a leader who put ahead the interests of his people.

The rift between two camps in Kisii County Assembly has deepened after three members were charged in court this week with malicious damage to property estimated to be worth Sh5 million.
Attempts to impeach Assembly Speaker David Kombo have divided Members of the County Assembly (MCAs), with the division escalating earlier this week when the two camps engaged in a confrontation that led to destruction of property within the assembly.
