“Those people who are busy peddling rumors under some unknown research document, on who should be considered for DP from Western Kenya, should stop and forget such unprocessed thoughts. The luhyas have known leaders, in government, who represent the community ably. I am a trade unionist, period. And I do not desire any other elective or appointive seat. If there is anything coming for the luhya community we have known political leaders who speak for the community politically and represent us in government. I am just an elder and advisor.” Posted Atwoli.
