His procession will later snake its way from Awendo before he will address a huge rally at Migori County Stadium in Migori town.

Preparation for the visit are in top gear and done by ODM leaders led by county secretary Joseph Olala, Nyatike MP Edick Anyanga and his Suna East counterpart Junet Mohammed.

Earlier today local ODM leaders met for preparations of the tour in Migori town to offer logistics and security.
