Bungoma Governor Kenneth Lusaka defended Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna during Sunday worship at St. Mary's Ndengelwa Catholic Church. Western Kenya leaders must cease their public disputes, Lusaka declared. The governor warned that continued fighting among Mulembe nation representatives threatens their national political power. Recent verbal assaults against Sifuna by regional politicians drew condemnation from Lusaka. He urged leaders to engage respectfully through dialogue rather than public insults.

Sifuna faces pressure after criticizing the ODM-UDA partnership arrangement. Homa Bay Town MP Peter Kaluma demands that Sifuna resign from his Senate Minority Leader and ODM Secretary-General roles. The senator rejected these calls, stating that only party leader Raila Odinga possesses removal authority. Lusaka plans reconciliation efforts with feuding officials like Trans Nzoia Governor George Natembeya. He emphasized that regional unity strengthens political influence and cited the recent Sh7 billion hospital allocation for Bungoma County as proof of successful government cooperation.
