All systems go as Siaya set to host fourth 'Piny Luo' festival this year

The two-day event is designed to celebrate the beauty and allure of the four Luo-Nyanza counties, but also the profound significance of Siaya County in Luo history.

It is a festival tipped to be climax of festivities and usher in the New Year in style. Preparations for the annual Piny Luo festival, meant to create awareness about local culture and promote tourism, are in top gear.

And with it, a colourful and powerful cast of attendees including Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni have been lined up to attend the December 31st to January 2 fiesta.
