His exit was triggered by public outcry after Kisumu City askaris were caught on tape dragging a female hawker on the road for a considerable distance.
“I hereby take full responsibility for the acts committed thereto. I hereby extend my deepest regret to all the people of Kisumu County and the nation as a whole, for this is not what the County Government of Kisumu represents,” he said in his resignation letter dated March 26, 2021.
