President William Ruto and Raila Odinga are among national leaders attending the burial of former Karachuonyo MP Phoebe Asiyo, who is being laid to rest at her Wikondiek home in Homa Bay County.

Ruto is accompanied by Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi, Governors Gladys Wanga (Homa Bay), Ochilo Ayacko (Migori) and several Members of Parliament.

Also in attendance is Siaya Senator Oburu Oginga.

Asiyo died in a hospital last month, while visiting the United States, aged 93.
