North Sakwa chief Joseph Nyogilo said Odhiambo Kangilo alias Singh died after he was stabbed several times in the back.

The chief said the death occurred hours after Owino (ODM candidate) had just held a rally in the area and left.

But Owino distanced himself from the incident saying that he has been away in Nairobi.

"I only learned about the unfortunate incident on Monday morning. It is very sad to lose people because of politics," Owino said.

The victim of the fracas passed on while being rushed to a private hospital in Kisumu .

"It is most likely that he was chased, fell down before he was attacked by a mob armed with knives," Nyogilo said.
