Migori County Assembly speaker Boaz Okoth

Migori County Assembly Speaker Boaz Okoth was arrested by the Nairobi detectives in a case linked to the chaos that occurred at the assembly on Wednesday, 23 September.

Okoth had mentioned earlier that he feared for his life and accused ODM of organizing attacks on him and his family.

“I was attacked in the presence of ODM Secretary General Edwin Sifuna. The person who attacked my bodyguard was his brother. I am not sure why they attacked me. I think they thought I was with some MCAs at the hotel. My life is in danger,” he lamented.

Okoth was forced to postpone Governor Okoth Obado’s impeachment motion after it had failed to kick-off for the fourth time.

Seven other MCAs were also arrested over the chaos. However, they were released on Ksh30,000 cash bail each after pleading not guilty to charges mentioned.

On Wednesday, 23 September, Obado claimed that ODM was planning to use police officers to harass MCAs inside the County Assembly and interfere with the vote.
