Silas Tiren is one of a kind as far as the politics of Uasin Gishu are concerned.
Out of the six lawmakers from Uasin Gishu which is the home turf of DP Dr Wiliam Ruto, Tiren is the only one who is fond of attacking him.
It's fundamental to note that majority of the electorate here being ardent supporters of the DP that seems to give Tiren less worries.
His anti-Ruto politics seem to be geared up by the fact that he wants to look like a leader who is not swayed by the regional politics or other elements of politics to change his stand.
Despite political pundits opining that his continued attacks to the DP are pouring cold water on his political career, Tiren seems not to be calming down soon.
He is most likely driven with the context of delivering to his people and showing them what he is capable of doing.
The passion not to be swayed by political kingpins, desire to stick by his stand and know what his people want are part of the power driving his anti-Ruto politics.
The notion that one is supposed to be elected not basing on his\her political camp but on his ideology and manifesto is evident on Silas Tiren’s political strategy.
The recent by elections in Ugenya is a typical example.
David Ochieng won despite not being affiliated with Raila Odinga’s ODM which is the most popular party in the region.
The power driving Silas Tiren’s anti-Ruto politics is purely the desire and passion to go it alone and face his people ready for the outcome despite not associating with the political kingpins of the region.
