RESIDENTS OF A county in Western were in for a rude shock recently when a visibly drunk vocal female politician confronted the governor while armed with a stick. The politicians had met at a funeral in a constituency in the county. Drama unfolded when the staggering politician stormed the podium, rudely interrupted the governor’s speech before she attempted to whack him with the stick. The county boss’s bodyguards however acted swiftly, whisked the attacker away and managed to contain the deteriorating situation.

STILL IN THE region, an MP worried of apparent defeat in the 2027 election is going after heads of schools whose institutions host his opponents. The lawmaker has been threatening to cause the transfer of the school principals, accusing them of giving his political enemies platforms to criticise his tenure in office as they popularise their bids. Education stakeholders have asked the man to allow public institutions in his area to run independently.

AN INSTITUTION OF higher learning is staring at mass resignations over unaddressed grievances. Dozens of employees have reportedly already left, signalling an exodus of talents and skills. The official in charge is accused of consolidating power by bypassing established hiring protocols to place loyalists in key administrative roles. The favouritism is said to extend to scholarship distribution, with allegations that opportunities are reserved predominantly for select tribes, fostering resentment among staff and students.

A WOMAN REP came under heavy criticism at a church service for demeaning other women leaders by claiming that they were not “fat” enough to fit in their skirts. The woman rep, who has shown interest in the governor position, has been having a hard time selling her ambition owing to her loose tongue. Her early campaigns have been reduced to pure drama and whenever given an opportunity to speak, she often makes controversial remarks while consistently floating the name of a top government official.
