In the complex tapestry of Nakuru County's leadership, the office of the Woman Representative stands out as a beacon of action and impact. The political structure at the county level places emphasis on three pivotal roles: the Governor, the Senator, and the Woman Representative. Their shared responsibility is to work collectively for the county’s development. However, as it stands, only Liza Chelule, the Woman Representative, manages to reach the hearts and minds of the people, a testament to her commitment and vision for the county’s future.

The Governor’s office, bestowed with the responsibility and resources that run into hundreds of millions, has not executed developments proportional to the vast amount of funding at its disposal. Citizens of Nakuru are left yearning for the infrastructure, health, and educational improvements expected from such a well-funded position. This underperformance highlights a pressing need for accountability and visible results that mirror the Governor's financial capabilities.

Meanwhile, the Senator, though not directly allocated development funds, plays a crucial oversight role. The Senator's voice is pivotal in holding the Governor to account, ensuring that resources are judiciously allocated to benefit the communities. It is essential for this office to be more vocal and visible, urging the Governor to translate financial inputs into tangible projects across Nakuru.

On the other end of this spectrum is Woman Representative Liza Chelule, who, despite operating with substantially fewer resources, manages to make a meaningful impact. Her efforts in enhancing women’s rights, supporting community initiatives, and spearheading educational campaigns resonate with the public, bridging a gap that is all too apparent. Her ability to deliver under constrained circumstances speaks volumes about her dedication and strategic use of funds. Chelule embodies a model of leadership that prioritizes people over politics, ensuring that even those at the grassroots level feel the impact of good governance.

For the people of Nakuru, this disparity in performance among the county woman rep, is both enlightening and encouraging. It highlights that impactful leadership does not necessarily stem from the size of one's budget, but rather from intent, integrity, and action. It serves as a crucial lesson in political engagement and accountability, prompting to reflect on the qualities of value in the leaders.

Nakuru Woman Representative Hon. Liza Chelule is most supportive leader according to the residents as compared to the governor and the senator 

As citizens of Nakuru looks towards the future, it is imperative for them to advocate for transparency, demand more from their leaders, and support those who genuinely work for their betterment. By doing so, they can ensure that the promise of development is not just heard but seen and felt throughout the county. In this dynamic political landscape, Nakuru's journey will be shaped by leaders like Liza Chelule, whose work leaves a tangible mark on the community.

May God bless Hon. Liza Chelule.
