The summons letter was signed by the secretary of the Disciplinary Committee Paul Otieno, the six are expected to appear before the committee at the Kisumu central ODM party office.

The six are to answer to different allegations and are liberty to be accompanied by their legal counsel.

Samo is accused of convening a press conference and calling Deputy Governor Mathews Owili, an ODM member, a ‘flower girl’ who has not been chairman of a cattle dip.

Olima is accused of failing to whip members to back the county government agenda in the assembly and instead whipping them to jointly oppose the administration agenda.

He has also been accused of convening and participating in a press conference where the top county leadership and senor party members were maligned in public.

“You are invited to appear before the committee on Friday, August 30 at 10.30am to respond to the issues raised,” read the letter copied to the party leader Raila Odinga, secretary general Edwin Sifuna and the Kisumu county ODM chair. 

The nominated MCAs are also accused of not supporting party ideologies and interests in the assembly.

The MCAs had claimed that Achar was failing the county as a whole. She refused to quit.

The summons follows the part’s county delegates conference at Tom Mboya Labour College where various leaders, including the MCAs, were warned against violating the party’s wishes and directives.
