Already, hundreds of ODM leaders led by James Orengo have already landed in Nyansiongo ahead of Raila's visit.

Top on the agenda will be mourning Governor John Nyagarama's son, Ndemo Nyagarama, who will be laid to rest on Friday.

"We were expecting the DP and he even confirmed that he would attend formally.

"However, this morning, we are notified that he has another function elsewhere thus he won't make it," said George Momanyi, one of the organisers.

Besides Orengo, Senators Okong'o Mogeni, Otieno Kajwang, CJ David Maraga and a host of MPs are in attendance.

High octane politics is likely to be ensued in the burial between ODM and Jubilee politicians from the region.

Raila, who landed from South Africa, is expected to lead mouners and his special seat was preserved in time.
