The burial of Kisii deputy governor Joash Maangi’s father Abel Gongera turned chaotic after Dagoretti North Simba Arati took the stage.
Addressing the mourners, Arati, a die-hard ODM Party Raila Odinga supporter, asked Deputy President William Ruto to apologize for the violence meted on the Kisii people in 2007.
