Legislator Millie Odhiambo on Tuesday left parliament in stitches when she punctuated her speech with the word ‘donge’
The law maker was clarifying a point before the house that the former
aide to the Prime Minister Caroli Omondi is not a Luo, but a native of
Suba.
The house was left in stitches when Millie Odhiambo said ‘donge’ then was quick to defend her usage of the Luo word saying.
“Donge is an international word. It has been accepted into the
dictionary” said Odhiambo as lawmakers, their political
alienations forgotten, all rolled with laughter.
The word ‘donge’ was made popular after a local television station
aired a Kisumu man complaining about the election result. The man, Felix
Ochii, even got interviewed later on television was even hosted at The
Churchill Live Show.
Millie Odhiambo is the only female Member of Parliament from Nyanza. She won the Mbita parliamentary seat with a landslide.
