Kisumu senator Prof Anyang’ Nyong’o was attacked by a group of youths in Kisumu, Sunday.

Nyong’o who was in his campaign trail at Kobura Primary School in Kano, is said to have been attacked by his opponent’s supporters for the Kisumu gubernatorial race.

The youths are believed to be allied to Mc’Obewa, one of his political rivals.

The senator has declared interest to vie for the seat which is currently being held by Jack Ranguma.

The senators’ car was badly damaged by goons who hurled stones at it.

The attack came after the senator was recently caught up in similar chaos in Migori county during an ODM rally.
