Siaya Senator James Orengo’s entry
into the governor race has caused panic in
incumbent Cornel Rasanga’s campaign team.
They will have to come up with a strategy to
counter the witty and seasoned politician.
Those who spoke to the Star said they fear
Orengo’s mastery of political strategy and
oratory skills.
Rasanga’s campaign team is led by political
adviser Oloo Okanda, the former Alego-Usonga ODM chairman.
Okanda said Orengo
announces his bid at the eleventh hour,
catching his rivals off guard, and goes on to
win.
This was in reference to the 2013 general
election where Orengo said he would defend
his Ugenya seat only to ambush nominated
MP Oburu Oginga by announcing he would
run for senator.
This left Oburu with no option
but to run for the ODM governor ticket against
William Oduol. Both were disqualified.
