Western Kenya leaders met yesterday in two separate meetings to seek unity as jostling for the region’s “kingship” intensifies.

Devolution Cabinet Secretary Eugene Wamalwa and Kakamega Governor Wycliffe Oparanya led their troops to a meeting with elders at the Kitale National Polytechnic in Trans Nzoia County where they pledged to continue supporting initiatives that would benefit the region.
