SO SAD: Man Collapses After Voting In Kisumu, Dies In Hospital
by Brian Ndungu Habari
A man collapsed at a polling station in Kisumu's Nyando constituency and later died about five hours after voting began.
Patrick Odoyo passed at Lela polling station in Kobura ward where he voted. He was the fifth person to do so.
Odoyo died at Ahero sub-county hospital where he was rushed.
His body was taken to the facility's mortuary.
It is not clear why Odoyo collapsed but many woke up early, did not have food and even braved bad weather to be among the first to vote.
