In the world of politics, strategies and maneuvering often shape the landscape. As the political landscape evolves, it’s not uncommon for politicians to make calculated moves to secure power or influence.
Recent statements from Members of Parliament (MPs) Samuel Arama and Joash Nyamoko of Nyamira County have shed light on their future political aspirations and the motives behind their decisions.
These insights provide a glimpse into the complex game being played in the county, where ambitions and dissatisfaction intertwine.
Nyamoko’s Calculated Move:
Joash Nyamoko’s announcement to vie for either the governor or senate position in Nyamira County in 2027 has raised eyebrows and ignited discussions.
One interesting perspective that emerges is the potential motive behind his decision to divide the votes and ensure Governor Amos Nyaribo’s loss.
In a political chess game, candidates often strategize to weaken their opponents. By splitting the votes, Nyamoko aims to exploit the current administration’s vulnerabilities and increase the chances of a power shift in the county.
While some may perceive this as a selfish move aimed solely at personal gain, others argue that it is a strategic attempt to hold leaders accountable and bring about change.
Arama’s Call for Change:
On the other hand, MP Samuel Arama’s decision to vie for a position stems from his belief that the current office holder, Governor John Nyaribo, has failed in his mandate.
Arama’s outspokenness and commitment to serving the interests of the people have made him a prominent figure in Nyamira County’s political landscape.

Arama’s assertion that the incumbent governor has not delivered on his promises resonates with a section of the population dissatisfied with the current administration.
Arama sees his potential candidacy as an opportunity to bring fresh ideas, address the issues plaguing the county, and offer a new direction for the people of Nyamira.
In a recent interview on Manoti TV, Hon Samuel Arama emphasized that the people of Nyamira will ultimately judge his performance based on his track record.
As the current MP of Nakuru Town West Constituency, Arama is serving his third term since 2013 and has gained recognition for his dedication to development projects and philanthropic efforts.
One of Arama’s notable achievements is the construction of tarmac roads, schools, and perimeter walls within his constituency.
These infrastructure developments have greatly improved the living conditions and access to education for local residents.
Additionally, Arama has made significant contributions by purchasing school buses and awarding bursaries to deserving students, ensuring that education remains accessible to all.
Recently, Arama has been the talk of the town in Nyamira County due to his commitment to helping those in need.

In a heartwarming act of generosity, Arama personally paid the school fees for three students at Metropolis Academy in Nyamira and even built a house for their mother, Teresa Omwando, a poor widow from Borabu. This compassionate gesture has garnered admiration and respect from the community.
Arama also demonstrated his commitment to the well-being of the people of Nyamira by clearing a medical bill of Ksh 35,000 at Nyamira Referral Hospital.
His swift action in providing financial assistance to those in need reflects his dedication to improving healthcare access and affordability.
In addition to his focus on education and healthcare, Arama has also been actively involved in the construction of churches. Most recently, he contributed Ksh 100,000 towards the construction of the Riakworo SDA church, with additional support from his friends amounting to over Ksh 50,000.

As the election season approaches in four years time, Arama’s track record of development projects, philanthropy, and unwavering dedication to the welfare of his constituents will likely play a crucial role in shaping the opinions of the people of Nyamira.
