According to the MP despite the fact that Ongeri has agreed to support Ongwae they will lose terribly come 2017 and current Kisii senator Chris Obure will become the governor.

“We have known Ongeri for a while and he has done nothing to the residents of Gusii region and now he is saying they will bring development to Kisii county of which am sure is a lie,” he added.

The MP called upon the residents to vet the leaders wisely before they vote them in or they will regret until 2022 when the elected fail to deliver.
