Siaya Governor Cornel Rasanga's communications team has been embroiled in a sex scandal that has left the public outraged. The scandal centers around Salim Odeny, a senior officer in the communications department, who has been accused of having a raucous appetite for married women.
According to sources, Odeny has been involved in several extramarital affairs, including one with a woman whose husband has publicly spoken out against him. The husband, known by the street name 'Ruler,' has been joined by other angry residents of Siaya in demanding action from the governor.
Background checks indicate that the communications team is led by Jerry Sando and Eric Juma, both of whom are described as staunch Christians. However, locals have expressed disappointment that the team has failed to uphold high integrity standards, particularly in light of Odeny's behavior.
It is worth noting that Odeny's employment with the governor's office has been shrouded in controversy. According to documents filed at the Siaya Comm offices, Odeny was retained from Governor Rasanga's 2017 campaign team due to his Luo-oratory skills. However, his past behavior has raised questions about his suitability for the role.
As the scandal continues to unfold, angry residents of Siaya are planning to take matters into their own hands and 'teach Odeny a lesson' in front of the governor. The incident has sparked widespread outrage and calls for the governor to take swift action to address the situation.
