Former Homa Bay Deputy Governor Oyugi Magwanga has resigned, citing irreconcilable differences and a desire to distance himself from alleged failures in development projects under Governor Gladys Wanga.

• Oyugi Magwanga intends to challenge Governor Gladys Wanga for the gubernatorial seat in 2027.
• Magwanga's resignation comes after his office was reportedly locked from December 1, 2025, and he was denied access to official vehicles.
• Governor Gladys Wanga accepted the resignation, attributing it to "persistent and irreconcilable differences" and Magwanga's "sustained preoccupation with future political ambitions."
