A burial in Matungu, Kakamega County, on Sa****ay turned chaotic after Governor Wycliffe Oparanya and Mahiakalo MCA Cleophas Malala fought in front of CORD leader Raila Odinga. Mr Oparanya was annoyed by accusation by Mr Malala that he was abating ********** at the burial of Peter Pos**, father of Kakamega ODM party secretary Paul Pos**.
Trouble began when the MCA asked Oparanya to explain why Kakamega Finance executive Paul Otsola was st*** in office “even after he was adversely mentioned in President Uhuru Kenyatta’s list of shame and subsequently asked by the county ***embly to step aside following the Ksh200 m***ion irregularly given to Mumias Sugar Company by the county government”.

Mr Oparanya, w** was seated next to CORD leader Raila Odinga, then marched to the podium where he engaged Mr Malala and struggled for the microp**ne before they went physical.
