A niece of the late Robert Ouko, she was interested in politics in 1992. She recalls how she realized where her fate was in 1990s, when she followed her family discussions on political developments in the country. She used to follow keenly political activists like Paul Muite and James Orengo since she had an interest in people’s rights and justice. She gained experience in developing a solid manifesto and campaign structure during the campaigns of her husband Eric Nyamunga, former Nyando MP. In her manifesto, she promised economic empowerment for the youth and women, adult education for women, mentorship for girls and sports opportunities in the county.

It is unfortunate and disheartening that since the health function was devolved 10 years ago, our people on the ground are still suffering the wrath of poor health services and facilities despite being charged a lot for these services. One of the main contributors to poor services is facilities are unable to spend money they collect at source yet; it gets lost in county coffers because of mismanagement. If this law passes, health facilities will be able to deal with their own unique challenges at the facility level. We do not need to have a uniform solution yet each facility ...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to join you in welcoming the delegation from Narok to this Assembly. We want to thank you very much for visiting us.

Even if you are a farmer in Narok, you will also learn a lot from the Senate and your able representative, Sen. Olekina. He has been very active in issues affecting county governments. We know very well that Agriculture ...

Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker for giving me an opportunity to add my voice to the Statement that has been brought forward by Sen. Olekina. It is very unfortunate. This morning, I was watching news and saw that the tax regime – the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) – had surpassed their target by about Kshs140 billion.

Madam Deputy Speaker, any time fuel prices are increased, it affects all Kenyans in every aspect of life. It is very unfortunate that these things happen without explanation. The increase by Kshs9 per litre is a lot of money for a single addition in one month. Last month, it was Kshs5. We do not know what it will be next. We are doing a lot of injustice to our people. It is not a matter of who is in the Government, ‘ nusu mkate’ or the ‘handshake.’ This is a very serious matter that touches the lives of our people. ...
