Regional politics played out when the body of slain businessman Jacob Juma arrived in Western for public viewing in Kakamega and Bungoma towns on Friday.

There was no viewing of the body in Bungoma, where the charged crowd made it impossible for the exercise to take place, forcing Sirisia MP John Waluke to order the pilot carrying the casket to lift off for Juma’s Mungore home in Bumula Constituency.
