By Godfrey Wamalwa

Kimilili residents are increasingly voicing support for Hon. Masinde Nguti as their preferred choice for the next Member of Parliament, citing his consistent humanitarian activities and deep-rooted commitment to community welfare.

Across the constituency, residents point to Nguti’s hands-on approach to addressing social challenges, particularly among vulnerable groups. From supporting needy students with school fees to assisting families affected by poverty, illness and natural calamities, Nguti has earned a reputation as a leader who responds to community needs beyond the election cycle.

Community elders, youth leaders and women groups say Nguti’s humanitarian footprint is visible in many parts of Kimilili. He has been involved in facilitating access to basic necessities for disadvantaged households, supporting local health initiatives, and mobilising resources to assist bereaved and distressed families. To many residents, these actions reflect empathy and leadership grounded in service rather than political rhetoric.

Youth leaders in Kimilili note that Nguti has taken a keen interest in young people, often supporting sports activities, talent development and youth empowerment initiatives. They argue that his engagement has helped keep many young people active and hopeful, while also nurturing unity within the constituency.

Education has also featured prominently in Nguti’s humanitarian work. Parents and school administrators acknowledge his support for learners from humble backgrounds, saying his interventions have enabled many students to remain in school and pursue their academic goals. Residents say this demonstrates his understanding that education is a long-term investment in the constituency’s future.

Women groups have equally praised Nguti for supporting grassroots initiatives aimed at economic empowerment. Through donations, mentorship and mobilisation, they say he has helped strengthen small-scale income-generating activities, contributing to improved household livelihoods.

As political temperatures slowly rise, residents say Nguti’s track record sets him apart. Many argue that Kimilili needs a leader who understands community struggles and is willing to act, not only during campaigns but consistently.

While the political landscape remains open, the growing support for Hon. Masinde Nguti underscores a broader sentiment among Kimilili residents: leadership anchored in compassion, accessibility and service. For many, his humanitarian record has positioned him as a credible and trusted choice for the constituency’s next parliamentary representative.
