Busia Senator Okiya Omtatah's rural home came under attack on Wednesday last week from unknown people, leaving one of his relatives injured. The latest development adds to many other attempts to harm him, the worst being in 2012 when he was brutally assaulted along Kenyatta Avenue in Nairobi, and lost some teeth in the harrowing experience.

Last month, the senator was attacked by goons while on his way home from the Busia Law Courts where he had turned up for a case in which he has sued the Busia County Government in his efforts to get some documents from the county, which he says will help him execute his oversight role in protecting and defending public property and rights.
