Raila Odinga-led Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party has defended the late Ken Okoth’s move to appoint his brother Bernard Imran Okoth to be in charge of National Government Constituency Development Fund ( NG-CDF).

The party’s communication director Philip Etale says those decampaigning against Imran using his appointment to head NG-CDF are doing so because they are scared of Imran’s record.

He says the success of the late Ken in Kibra was as a result of Imran’s determination to have his brother achieve his election pledges to the people of Kibra.

Etale further urges those campaigning on the basis of that account to quote any report by the Auditor General that states financial misappropriation by the Kibra NG-CDF.

He notes that the late MP’s projects did not stall when he was incapacitated because of his ailment and had to seek treatment abroad.

Through a long social media post, Etale notes that Imran is the leader Kibra people deserve.

“I have seen some people posting on social media that the late Hon. Ken Okoth appointed his relative (Imran) to be in-charge of NG-CDF. Yes, it is a fact. No one is denying this.When Ken was incapacitated because of his ailment and had to seek treatment abroad, did his projects stall? No.Again, I want to ask those campaigning on the basis of that account to quote any report by the Auditor General that states financial misappropriation by the Kibra NG-CDF. Post it here.Imran’s opponents are just scared because of his good record.The success of Ken’s projects was as a result of Imran’s determination to have his brother achieve his election pledges to the people of Kibra.He is definitely the leader Kibra people deserve,” reads the post.
