Kisumu Town West MP Olago Aluoch on Saturday, December 28, alleged that there was a connection between the mysterious deaths of Court of appeal Judge Otieno Odek and the former Masinde Muliro Vice-Chancellor Professor Frederick Otieno.
Speaking during the burial of the former VC, Olago claimed that the deceased had met with the late judge two weeks before his death at a golf club.
He further stated that the court of appeal judge had been trying to introduce professor Otieno to golf but neither would live past two weeks of their meeting.
"The coincidence that most of you wouldn't know is that two weeks before the death of Professor Otieno he had met Justice Odek at a golf club and the judge was trying to introduce him to playing golf also and they were talking about life,
"Weird enough they both died around the same time and also died under the same circumstances," Olago alluded.
The MP went on to narrate that one was found dead (Justice Odek) and the other almost dead (Professor Otieno) in their respective houses.
" The issue that caused professors death is the same issue that caused Odeks death, let us admit it," he added.
Olago concluded his speech by asking the mourners to speak their minds without fear as he and his Rarieda counterpart Atiende Omollo were ready to represent anyone who would be charged in court over what they would have said at the funeral.
Justice Odek was buried at his home in Memba village in Rarieda Siaya County on Friday, December 27 in a ceremony attended by among others the president of the supreme court and the Chief Justice David Maraga.
