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.

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I seem to be at a loss; I do not understand how the debate is going. If I look at the Statement and the direction that the debate is taking, they are two different things. Nobody is against the cooperation; nobody is against the people of Elgeyo-Marakwet County. However, the problem is the corruption around the project. That is what we are not facing here. Therefore, I am not quite sure what we are debating; so, let us face the problem where it is!

Hon. Senators, one thing we must realise is that the issue of pending bills is a big problem in the whole country. All counties are going through a lot of problems with that. Most of the people who took over as new governors are still struggling with the previous pending bills.

In my view, the issue of pending bills should be given a very serious thought because if it is not done, most of our counties will lag behind and not move forward. The Committee, which I am part of, is on top of it.
