Dr. Joyce Cherono Laboso

Dr. Laboso, a distinguished scholar can best be described as assertive and confident. She had never thought of being a politician, her debut into politics was unceremonious. The first signals were sent as she eulogized he late sister, Lorna, who had died in a plane crash. A week later elders announced that they had chosen her to fill the vacant Sotik Parliamentary seat. In her two terms she has prioritized development of roads, education, water and electricity within the constituency. She also holds close to heart women issues. Dr. Laboso is the current deputy speaker, National Assembly.
