Kuhusu Long’oleWho he is
A young leader who walks with the wisdom of our elders.
Timothy Kipchirchir Kemboi, known to many simply as Long’ole, is standing to be Marakwet West’s Member of Parliament in 2027.
His campaign is built the way trust is built here: face to face. He kneels for the blessing of the wazee, sits on the grass at hillside barazas, celebrates with women’s groups, stands with young people on the football pitch and takes the hard questions live on radio.
He believes leadership starts with listening, and that money meant for Marakwet West should be felt in Marakwet West: in wages for our young people, roads for our farmers and affordable credit for our traders.
