The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) grassroots elections  in the Western and Nyanza regions were yesterday marred by violence and confusion, save for a few areas.

The elections, held at the ward level, saw delegates elected from location-level polling stations convene to choose leaders for key positions, including mainstream party roles, the women’s and youth league.

In Homa Bay, one youth lost his left palm and fingers, while another sustained a fractured arm during the primaries in Ndhiwa Constituency.
