Kisii Woman Representative Dorice Donya’s motorcade was pelted with stones by unknown individuals.
Donya had addressed mourners at the Egetuki area of Bomachoge Chache, Kisii, after which an unknown number of youths attacked her convoy.
Her office car, registered in the name of Affirmative Action Fund, was pelted with stones, vandalizing its rear windscreen.
She blamed the attack on the current political heat in Kisii calling for urgent intervention.
“The security officers should investigate what is happening here in Kisii. This car which was stoned actually belongs to the government that is used to distribute cheques and monitor projects,” she stated.
“If I am being stoned, then what will happen to other citizens who cannot afford to pay for security,” Donya wondered.
The Woman Rep later reported the incident at the nearby Ogembo Police Station. She later addressed the media from her Kisii Town office.
“We have reached a point where the top security organs have to come in and restore order. We have leaders who are guarded by police but still, we are attacked and booed in their backyard by hired goons.”
She said; “It is sad that some politicians are walking into public meetings with goons, one and half years after general elections. This is shameful.”
The Woman Rep had made her speech at the funeral but was later booed as she delivered a condolence message from the National Assembly Majority Chief Whip Slyvanus Osoro.
Tension remained high at the funeral which was also attended by Kisii Governor Simba Arati and area MP Alfa Miruka.
