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.

bursaries by the former governor Hon. (Dr.) Kidero, Hon. governor Sonko continued with them or was that totally abandoned and then he started on another list or set of students? It is important for purposes of good governance.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. As we continue with the proceedings, the lawyer for the Governor should be addressing you and not the witness because that is a bit of intimidation. The procedure of the House is addressing the Chair is to address the Chair.

I think Kisumu seems to be on trial here.

I am not trying to support my Governor or to protect what should be other peoples’ rights. The way we are making this contribution is as if an opinion has already been formed without any investigations done. In my view, there should be investigations. The district lines are there and the colonial government demarcations are there. This is not one thing we want to sit in this House and start castigating or demonizing a governor because that should not be the way forward.

In my view, we should as a House find a way forward for the problem that has been brought before us. We should not behave as if the Governor, hon. (Prof) Anyang- Nyong’o has already done his own things down there.

The issue of Vihiga and Kisumu has been a very big problem for a long time. I do not want to stand here and say that there is already a boundary. As I was growing up – and I went to school around that area – Maseno was in Kisumu. The most important thing we should be doing is finding out the correct positon; not demonizing without facts. We want facts and the district boundaries. It is a known thing that Maseno has always been in Kisumu.
