Birongo ward MCA Godfrey Nyamache has announced his interest in Nyaribari Chache parliamentary seat.
Speaking during a fundraiser event for the churches at Ibeno ward, Nyamache said he will contest for the seat in the 2022 elections noting that he will support the current MP Richard Tong’i for two terms in exchange for his support in 2022.
He said that he has a lot to offer the larger constituency adding that those eyeing the same seat to should be careful because it will not be an easy contest.
“I am giving MP Tong’i a notice to utilise the two terms because I will be hot and tuff in 2022 when I contest for the parliamentary seat,” he said.
“The idea of becoming the area MP was born when I realized I have a lot of good ideas only that they were confined within a small area of coverage,” he added.
Nyamache also faulted members of the he National Assembly for passing a bill that abolishes the “Honourable” title that MCAs once held.
“It was selfishness for the members of parliament to use a whole session discussing how they can strip MCAs off the honourable title instead of discussing matters that will help Kenyans,” he noted
The further noted that members of parliament should focus on passing bills that include Churches in the CDF kitty so that can also get developed.
“It’s important that the legislators consider having bills like including churches and other religions in the CDF program so that the faithful can be relieved off the burden of building churches,” suggested Nyamache.
