Siaya county's image has taken a hit following allegations of sex scandals involving a communications officer. The officer, Salim Odeny, has been accused of exploiting his closeness to Governor Cornel Rasanga to engage in illicit relationships.
According to sources, Odeny has a history of being involved in sex scandals, which led to his termination from an international NGO. However, he managed to secure a position in Governor Rasanga's campaign team ahead of the 2017 elections.
Locals have expressed outrage over Odeny's actions, with some calling for him to be fired. The situation has put the communications office under scrutiny, with some questioning the integrity of the team.
As the situation unfolds, Governor Rasanga's office is under pressure to take action against Odeny. The governor's communications team is expected to maintain a positive image, but Odeny's actions have put that in question.
