Homa Bay Governor Cyprian Awiti has asked married women from his county to deny their men conjugal rights until they are registered as voters.
Disillusioned by the low voter turnout in the county, Awiti is pleading with wives to deny their husbands sex until, they hit the county target of new votes. The county is yet to hit the target of 177,000 new voters to bring the total number of registered voters in Homa Bay to 650,000, ahead of the 2022 elections. From the look of things, politicians are struggling to acquire new voters hence the desperate measures.
