Read Time:1 Minute, 21 Second
Nakuru West Sub-county took center stage at the funeral of the late Martha Osinde in Kapkures Ward when aspiring MP Robinus Makana used the platform to openly challenge incumbent MP Samuel Arama, who was in attendance.
The event, held at St. Peter’s Mogoni, quickly transformed into a subtle yet intense political showdown between the two rivals.
Makana, addressing mourners and dignitaries alike, playfully yet pointedly suggested that if Hon. Arama decides to pursue his rumoured ambition for Nyamira County’s governorship, he should have no fears about leaving Nakuru West.
“Asiwe na wasi wasi – hapa NTW iko sawa na imara!” Makana declared, eliciting laughter and applause from the crowd. His remark, translating to “Let him have no worries – Nakuru Town West is stable and strong,” carried a clear message of readiness to take over leadership and usher in fresh momentum for the constituency.
Standing just a few meters away, Hon. Arama maintained a calm demeanor, though his supporters exchanged knowing looks, with some murmuring in reaction to Makana’s words.
According to sources close to Arama’s camp, the incumbent took Makana’s remarks as “mere propaganda” aimed at unsettling his loyal base.
However, political observers suggest that Makana’s statement struck a chord with locals, who have become increasingly vocal about a desire for renewed leadership in Nakuru West.
Makana continued, emphasizing his commitment to Nakuru West’s future and suggesting that local residents deserve more proactive leadership.
“Our people are ready for positive change, for leadership that puts them first, day in and day out,” he said, his eyes scanning the crowd for familiar nods of agreement.
