Others questioned why the disclosure became public years after Akombe rose to national prominence during the 2017 General Election period.
Akombe became widely known in Kenya after serving as a commissioner at the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) during the tense 2017 elections.

Political analysts say the discussion surrounding Onyonka’s family revelation reflects how public interest often extends beyond politics into the private lives of leaders and prominent public figures.
The issue has continued attracting reactions across social media platforms, especially because both Onyonka and Akombe are well-known figures in Kenya’s political history.
