Kisii Senator Richard Onyonka has cut ties with Governor Simba Arati after the two disagreed over appointments.
Onyonka said that the county boss had gone against a pre-election pact that could have awarded him 25 per cent of the county government jobs.
In a consultative meeting in Kisii on Saturday, Onyonka revealed that the governor had gone against their pre-election agreement and that subsequent meetings to solve the matter had borne no fruit.
