Speaking at Mugundoi in Uasin Gishu on Saturday, Sudi said Orengo has nothing to offer as far as development is concerned.

“When Orengo was appointed as a minister of lands, within four months, he had purchased six suits at Sh1 million each and a shirt valued at Sh.400, 000," he said.

Sudi expressed his concern over the high level of poverty witnessed in Siaya county currently, blaming Orengo for orchestrating the same by dwelling on politics at the expense of development.

He opined that the problems in Siaya are attributed to electing eloquent leaders who do nothing for the electorate.

"Orengo alianza safari yake ya siasa kabla mimi mwenyewe sijazaliwa. Kwa sasa tukiongea, umaskini umekidhiri sana kule kaunti ya Siaya na hiyo ndio matunda ya kuchagua viongozi wanaoongea kiingereza mingi na hawafanyi maendeleo," Sudi said.

(Orengo started his political journey long before I was born.As we speak there is high level of poverty in Siaya county. These are the consequences of electing leaders who only know how to speak fluent English with no tangible agenda to offer to the electorate).
