In a surprising turn of events, Nominated Senator Karen Nyamu has claimed to take over the responsibilities of Senator SIFUNA, citing his involvement in mass protests as the reason for her decision. Speaking at a recent press conference, Nyamu expressed her concern over the absence of effective representation in Nairobi due to the ongoing demonstrations.
“We in Nairobi elected a senator who is busy with maandamano, so I have taken over the job he was elected to do,” she asserted, referring to the widespread protests that have gripped the city in recent weeks.
The mass protests have seen thousands of citizens taking to the streets to advocate for various causes, ranging from social justice to political reforms. While the demonstrations have garnered attention and support from many, they have also raised questions about the effectiveness of elected officials in addressing the concerns of their constituents.
Senator SIFUNA’s involvement in the protests appears to have left a void in his duties, prompting Senator Nyamu to step in and assert her commitment to fulfilling the responsibilities she was nominated for.
It remains to be seen how this unusual situation will unfold and how Senator SIFUNA will respond to Nyamu’s claims. As the situation develops, the people of Nairobi are watching closely to see how their elected representatives will navigate the delicate balance between participating in civic movements and fulfilling their official roles in the Senate.
