This followed claims by three Ward representatives- Jabess Oduor (Kongowea), Duncan Onyango (Mikindani) and Mary Akinyi (Nominated), that Joho did nothing for the Luos in the County.

Led by Charles Rambo, the residents warned the three from propagating propaganda, saying Joho had done a lot for them.

They accused them of being used by Jubilee, to destabilise Luo relationship with the ODM deputy party leader.

"We are firmly in Cord and we support Joho. We have nothing against him because he has greatly supported us,'' said Rambo.

They addressed the press at a Nyali hotel, Friday.
