Day of judgement for Homa Bay beckons

The Seventh Day Adventists, unlike many other denominations do not believe that the dead go to heaven or hell. Rather, they remain unconscious until the return of Christ for judgment. Otieno Kajwang’ subscribed to this faith, and as he awaits the advent, or the coming of Christ, eight men are embroiled in a 'mapambano', a battle of their life. But for them, the judgment is five days away.

On Thursday February 12, a good percentage of 326,505 registered voters is expected to hit the ballot to decide who will succeed the charismatic Kajwang’. As the big days nears, the homestretch campaign mood is reaching fever pitch.
