Narok women Rep. Hon Soipan joins other leaders in finding a solutions on wrangles between SGR and Narok East residents.

Narok able women representative joined other elected leaders at Suswa to discuss and find lasting solutions to a myriad of issues between the residents of Suswa in Narok East and the China Road and Bridge Corporation(CRBC).

The SGR project is a flagship of the Jubilee Government expected and indeed intended to raise the livelihood standards of all Kenyans and even more, those Kenyans whose lands the SGR will cut through...it is therefore outrageous and unexpected for CRBC to want to confine these local communities in Narok to the back burner in matters of employment,tendering and coordination of the project.

The countless benefits of the SGR must be maximized and shared equitably within local communities and the relationship between thecommunity and CRBC should be one of collaboration,trust, and respect to avoid effects of adversarial confrontations like the recent loss of life of a young man in a demonstration: the Police and administration should be facilitators and not an impediment.

It is incumbent on all actors to work together as a team and embrace the SGR project which will undoubtedly be of immense value to the people of Narok County once completed.

KANU disappointed as Uhuru nominates Gideon Moi’s rival for top job.

Has KANU been shortchanged in Uhuru's cabinet appointments?

Gideon Moi and his Kenya African National Union must have been left disappointed after president Uhuru Kenyatta failed to name his allies in his Cabinet on Friday.

The president instead picked Moi’s rival Simon Chelugui, giving him a Cabinet slot to head the ministry of Water and Sanitation.

Chelugui who ran on a Jubilee party ticket gave Gideon Moi a run for his money in the Baringo senatorial race with their supporters clashing repeatedly.

Although Moi emerged victorious in the race, Chelugui who is a close ally to Deputy William Ruto commands massive following and should he endorse Ruto for 2022 then Moi will lose significant support in his Baringo home turf.

Earlier on, KANU Secretary General Nick Salat admitted to a local Newspaper that the party had indeed submitted a list of nominees to the president to be considered for slots in the Cabinet.

The list reportedly included Nick Salat, Kiprono Kitony among others who are affiliated to the Baringo Senator.

KANU was eyeing slots after entering a pre-election pact with Jubilee party that saw the party support Uhuru Kenyatta’s reelection bid.

Media reports also indicated that nomination of cabinet secretaries was threatening to tear Jubilee Party apart with William Ruto’s allies strongly opposed to the inclusion of politicians/people allied to KANU in the new cabinet.

Both Moi and Ruto have expressed interest in the 2022 presidential race and are consolidating their support in readiness for 2022.
