In my honest submission
ODM should support one of the sons or widow of the late Ben Oluoch Okello to succeed him as the senator till completion of his term. My reasoning is simply based on fair application of standards and equity.
When Kajwang died, his soporific brother was fished by ODM anglers deep from the anus of Congo Forest and dragged into the contest. Despite his massive unpopularity (he was not known even by his own relatives) Kajwang was fraudulently smuggled through the nominations and into senate like a bad wine sold under the cover of darkness.
When Mutula died, its ODM bigwigs who rushed to endorse Kethi, before jumping ship to Mutula Jr anointing him the sole candidate of CORD despite initial cold shoulder from Wiper.
If we are to set traditions, lets apply the standards across board without any bias, prejudice, partiality or treachery.
If we have any sense left, let the party not con this family by violently robbing them what it gave to Moses Kajwang by force.

THIS IS THE MOST STUPID AND BACKWARD ODM POLITICS OF LUO NYANZA. LEADERSHIP IS NOT AN ENTITLEMENT.
IF YOU WANY TO SUPPORT A BEREAVED FAMILY, GIVE EMPLOYMENT TO ONE OF THEM OR ALL.

Odinga has sacrificed his son to become kenya president to no avail. Odinga is not accepted to be a president ask Miguna Miguna .

May the soul of departed senator rest in peace. However as to the successer let Migori people go for the person they feel has what it takes to represent them. The politics of patronage and favouring dynasties should be highly discouraged…

Really? Are we some kind of monarchy? Let the people choose who they want, not who is selected for them. There are other ways to support a grieving family.

Stop yapping here as if you guys are from a different planet and condemning our Luo brothers for nothing. B4 you step further how come Moi supported Uhuru into presidency? It is in right order to support Mr. Oluoch’s son at least for the remaining term, the period his father could be in office. Afterwards there will be elections and Migori people can choose someone else if the son fails.
Mutula Jnr stepped in for his father, Nyenze’s wife stepped in to replace her hubby, MDVD was chosen to replace his father, Mr. Khaniri and the list goes on. Why point at the luos. Big mouthed!!!!

Its good for Raila to support Okello’s son but let Migori people elect whom they like but according my opinion Okello’s son is the best.
