The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has summoned Kakamega Governor Fernandes Barasa, Matungu Member of Parliament Peter Oscar Nabulindo, and former Sports Cabinet Secretary Rashid Echesa for grilling.

The summons came following the skirmishes witnessed over the weekend during the burial of a former chief in Mayoni Ward, Kakamega County, that left scores nursing injuries among them a police officer.

The three were summoned by the head of the Kakamega Region DCI to appear before the agency's office on Tuesday (today) to explain their involvement in the clashes.

This followed violent confrontations between their supporters during the funeral, destroying property worth millions of shillings.
