Police Spokesman Owino To Vie For Gubernatorial Post
Police Spokesperson Charles Owino has declared his interest to run for Siaya gubernatorial seat in next year’s General-Election.
In a meeting where he hosted a number of local leaders affiliated to Orange Democratic Party, the police spokesman said he was well suited to take over from Cornel Rasanga and battle it out with other regional giants salivating for the post.
Senator James Orengo is amongst those lined up to contest the highly eyed seat that is expected to heighten political temperatures and big money spending.
Owino asked contestants including Senator James Orengo to forget the seat and seek other positions if they want to remain relevant politically. “I know that the seat will attract many contestants including Senator Orengo and I hope he and other potential contenders are much prepared for the race or else they will be disappointed at the ballot box,” said Owino.
Owino said he’ll be resigning from office next year when he’ll have clocked 50 years as required. Owino is expected to vie for the post on an ODM ticket despite not having been in the good books with the party.
In the 2019 by election in Ugenya where he hails from, it was alleged that Owino sponsored David Ochieng who won the election on an Movement for Democracy and Growth (MDG) beating popular ODM party.
