Rose Nyamunga Ogendo

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.

  • 12 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, it is a cultural issue. I would like to take this opportunity to wish everybody a happy new year and let you, hon. Speaker, know that I have now come back to the House in my full colour, and that I really want to participate in this House. I do not want to be a “flower girl” on the ground. We are “flower girls” on the ground, as we are referred to. I do not want to extend that perception to the House. I want to participate very actively in this House. view
  • 12 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: I would like to urge you that we all need time to participate. That is why I have even changed my sitting position in this House. I have moved from where I normally sit to a seat near you, so that I can “catch your eye”. I hope that the strategy will work for me. view
  • 12 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: As articulated by previous speakers, the Motion is very straightforward. We do not need to repeat ourselves on issues. We do not need to have a lot of time. If somebody is supposed to retire at the age of 59 but on attainment of that age he starts complaining that he has not finished educating his children or that he has not done certain things, that is not an excuse. If you cannot make one important point in two minutes, you cannot make it even in one hour. So, we do not need to be given a lot of time ... view
  • 12 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: I remember that when I was in primary school, we used to have very articulate debates. You would make your point, and it would never be repeated. It would only be repeated if there was real need to do so. In this House, we need to do much more than this because there is a lot of walking around. There is a lot of disruption, with people having their personal discussions at very high volumes that are very disturbing. The whole of this morning, I have been disturbed by some Members who have been speaking very loudly behind me. I ... view

  • 12 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, we need to put all these things in place. We need to be more serious. We need to do the work that we are supposed to do in this House. view
