Kisumu County Senator prof. Tom Ojienda is seeking a Statement from the Standing Commmittee on Lands, Environment and Natural Resources regarding the ownership and registration of land occupied by the irrigation schemes in Kisumu County.

The Siaya County Deputy Governor William Oduol has defended himself against allegations of contravening the procurement requirements by forcing unbudgeted expenditure, an action that resulted in expenses of approximately Ksh 18 million for renovating his office, purchase of furniture and office equipment.

The Deputy Governor while appearing before the Senate Special Committee investigating his proposed removal from office chaired by Sen. William Kisang said he was not involved in any way in the procurement of the chair worth 1.12 million shillings as alleged.
