Kuria East lawmaker Marwa Kitayama has raised alarm about a plan by the Migori County Government to victimize his wife over his differences with Governor Okoth Obado.
Kitayama and Obado were a week ago locked in a row in Kuria East where the Governor had gone to open the newly built sub-county offices.
The governor was forced to cut off his speech and flee after residents, apparently allied to Kitayama, turned hostile and heckled him out of the dais.
The lawmaker is now claiming that Obado is now using his county officials to settle their rivalry with his wife Mary Kitayama who is the Kuria East Sub County Administrator.
Speaking to the press Thursday, he claimed that Obado sent-goons have severally tried to eject her from the office, accusing her of heckling Obado on that material day.
"My wife has been dragged into this and she is now being targeted at the county government for allegedly being responsible for the heckling of the governor in Kuria East. Unknown people have been going to her office several times to eject her," he told the Nation.
The clash happened at Kegonga, after the Governor blamed Kitayama for wrongly accusing him of discrimination in utilizing a World Bank funding amounting to Ksh516 million.
The parliamentarian questioned Obado for leaving out Kuria towns of Isibania and Kehancha in the upgrade program, opting for the Luo towns of Rongo, Migori and Awendo.
Violence erupted when Kitayama charged at the Governor who was accusing him of being used by his (Obado) rivals to tarnish his name.
Obado's Press Director Nicholas Anyuor has since rubbished the claims that the governor is using some people to victimize Mrs Kitayama.
