Former Kitui Rural Member of Parliament Hon. Charles Nyamai is emerging as a formidable contender in the 2027 parliamentary race, according to recent opinion polls conducted across the constituency.
From the vast plains of Lower Yatta to the vibrant centers of Kanyangi, Kavisuni, Masimbini, and Katwala in Kisasi Ward, Nyamai’s growing popularity is resonating with voters. Residents and political observers note that his development track record during his previous tenure is proving difficult for the incumbent MP David Mwalika to match.
“The 2027 general election will be a defining moment for the people of Kitui Rural,” said a local businessman in Kavisuni. “Nyamai worked for the people. The current MP has not met the expectations set by his predecessor.”
Multiple sources indicate that a network of local leaders and strategists is already holding regular meetings in major towns to lay the groundwork for Nyamai’s return. They aim to solidify support and craft a campaign that reflects the aspirations of Kitui Rural constituents.
While Nyamai himself has remained reserved in public appearances, behind-the-scenes momentum points toward a determined bid for a political comeback.
With less than three years to the next general election, the battle for Kitui Rural is heating up—and all signs suggest that Hon. Charles Nyamai could once again be headed to Parliament.
