West Pokot Residents Call for Sacking of Absentee Deputy Governor Who Works in Texas, US
Residents of West Pokot have raised concerns over the absence of the county's Deputy Governor Dr. Nicholas Atudonyang.
The residents questioned why their Governor, John Lunyangapuo has not taken any action despite his deputy being out of the country for about 8 months now.
Addressing the media, Independent Pokot Leaders Forum (IPLF) said Atudonyang has been in the county for less than one month since he was sworn-in into office in August last year.
Dr. Atudonyang, who operates as a neurosurgeon in Texas, United States, allegedly left the country immediately he took oath of office, the forum said. The group has issued a two-week ultimatum to Governor Lunyangapuo to sack and replace his deputy.
“He must relinquish the position if he can’t stay in Kenya and work for the Pokot. We have many challenges due to poor leadership .We have seen many referrals to Eldoret and shortage of drugs,” IPLF chairman Ezekiel Pyegoh said.
Pyegoh said they will collect signatures and institute proceedings for his ouster if the Governor ignores their demands. Dr. Atudonyang also doubles up as the Health County Executive committee member.

Has he been collecting salary and benefits for these 8months he has been away? Anybody in the know?
A neurosurgeon doctor who doesn't know he was elected to serve his people? Something is not right here!!!. A neurosurgeon need to check his brain ASAP. West Pokot people deserve better!!!. Nicholas Atudonyang, we are demanding that you relinquish the post of Deputy Governor of West Pokot with immediate effect. You are an embarrassment to us Doctors. You should know better!!!
Neurosurgeons have no Brains; having been Damaged by their Practice during Operations (due to day-in-day-out Exposure to Anasthetic Medications in their Patients). Even this Turkana "DG" could not be remembering a Thing (about having been Elected in Kenya).
He needs to be fired straight away and return all the wages & benefits he has collected as a deputy governor. He had no plan to be a DG of East Pokot but collected all that money for zero work while he is being paid in USA where he work.
