Waititu:Embakasi MP

 By George Oyaya

Embakasi

Ferdinand Ndungu Waititu who has declared his interest to vie for Governorship of Nairobi is the MP for Embakasi and prior to that he was a Deputy Mayor of Nairobi City.

Waititu was born in 1962 and had further  education in India where he graduated with a Diploma though media reports in Kenya recently claimed that the MP was heard recently boasting that he got a Degree from that Asian country.

The MP who is also an Assistant Minister for Water in the Government of Kenya  is always finding himself  on the wrong side of the law when Police arrest or disperse demonstrations he is found participating in his  constituency which is the biggest in Nairobi county.

Waititu is an active contributor in Parliament but his constituent say he has done little in terms of development in his constituency.

Starehe

Bishop Margaret Wanjiru of Jesus Is Alive Ministries (JIAM) is the MP for Starehe where he trounced a seasoned Nairobi politician and former Cabinet Minister Mr.Maina Kamanda.

She was born on December 22,1961 and the Bishop is a hardworker according to people close to her and a self-made person though a recent housing scam nearly tarnished her name.

She is also considered as being average in the implementation of development projects she promised her constituent when she was campaigning for the seat of Starehe in election.Bishop Wanjiru is also an Assistant Minister for Housing and her name has been floated as among people interested in vying for Governorhip of Nairobi in next year`s general election.
