“They wanted to eliminate me for political reasons” Angry mob burns down Millie Odhiambo’s house following her victory (Photos)
The fierce Millie Odhiambo now fears for her life – a mob that has been hunting her successfully managed to torch her house.
Apparently the mob was out to spill blood after the outspoken MP trounced her opponents to clinch ODM ticket for Mbita constituency.
The unknown hooligans storm into Millie Odhiambo compound in Urianda village, Lambwe ward in Mbita constituency, and burnt down her house.
Millie said some people had been targeting her since she was declared winner on Monday; she evaded them but they decided to follow her to her home where they burnt her house.
“It is true that my house has been destroyed by a mob that wanted to eliminate me for political reasons. Earlier they intended to attack my vehicle at Koyani village but I evaded them, so they resorted to burning my house,” Millie Odhiambo was quoted by the Standard.
The incident came barely two days after one of the bodyguards attached to the outspoken MP died after sustaining injuries during a chaotic nomination process in Homa Bay.
