A storm is brewing in Orange Democratic Movement party over the deteriorating health of NASA Chief Executive Norman Magaya, who is battling heart attack.
In a recent tweet, Magaya, a renowned lawyer, expressed disappointment in his dwindling finance fortunes, following the deadly heart attack.
"Nothing puts your life on a freeze like a heart attack ! Complete lifestyle change ! Your medical insurance cover becomes a big joke! Your finances get completely messed up. I have learnt tough lessons. But hey am a son of God ! I will overcome," he tweeted.
But former ODM deputy director of communication Seth Odongo alias Dikembe Disembe, claims that Mr Magaya was poisoned while representing Raila Odinga as agent at the Bomas of Kenya in 2017.
In a series of tweets on Monday, Mr Odongo, now working at the office of Minority Chief Whip Junet Mohamed, said Magaya's problems started when he collapsed at IEBC tallying center.
And according to him, Mr Magaya, who was recently admitted at Nairobi Hospital, has been neglected by top ODM officials despite orders by Raila Odinga to have his bills cleared.
"The Bomas incident is well known to the people who should know; and it is generally understood that it was not natural. Magaya must have been poisoned. Or something more terrible happened there," he said.
"Right now Magaya is so weak and thin; the body wasted by whatever it is that happened to him at Bomas, the spirit stung by the disloyalty, the isolation and the neglect by the political class he dutifully served," added Mr Odongo.
Mr Odongo blames ODM Executive Director Oduor Ong'wen of failing to help Mr Magaya, despite a directive from Mr Odinga, who recently visited Magaya at Nairobi Hospital.
The matter could land Mr Ong'wen in trouble given that he has recently been on spot following dismissal of Wafula Buke as the party's Director of strategic planning.
"Some people were saying Mr Kawino (Finance Director) is the problem, or Charles Memba (Accountant); but I reject these insinuations. If the party leader made a pronouncement on Magaya, it is the ED to effect it. If not, that matter goes to the SG," he claimed.
Mr Ong'wen took over from Magarer Lang'at, who was unceremoniously kicked out of the ODM party in 2014 over claims that he was a spy for the Jubilee party.
