Homa Bay Town MP George Peter Kaluma has lost his father Mzee Stanely Aluma Omolo.
This was announced by the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) through the party’s official Twitter account.
“We commiserate with the family, friends and relatives of Hon. @gpdkaluma following the death of his father Mzee Alima. May the family find peace and God’s fortitude during this difficult time,” tweeted ODM.
The ODM party did not, however, reveal the cause of the death of Kaluma’s father.

Homa Bay Town member of parliament Peter Kaluma was on Wednesday engaged in a fight during the morning session at the National Assembly.
The MP disagreed with his Marakwet East counterpart Kangogo Bowen and caused a scuffle on the floor of the House. They had to be separated through the intervention of Majority Leader Aden Duale and the sergeants at arms.
The two were seen engaging in a bitter quarrel which involved pushing and shoving before they were finally separated by their colleagues.
The two legislators seemed to have disagreed over the incident where Kwale Woman Representative Zulekha Hassan entered the chambers carrying her infant.
Mwea MP Kabinga Wachira and Migori Senator Ochillo Ayacko were also involved in the fight but later walked away.
MPs thrown out of Parliament
The Speaker did not take notice of the fight as he was attempting to bring order to the House after unrest caused by the stunt with the Kwale woman rep.
Alego Usonga MP Samuel Atandi, who tried to defend MP Zulekha, was also asked to leave the chambers for being disorderly.
