As the clock ticks toward the 2027 General Election, political murmurs across Kitui County point to a looming shakeup in the County Assembly. According to emerging reports from the ground, only a few sitting Members of County Assembly (MCAs) are seen as likely to secure re-election, while the majority are said to be on shaky ground.
Trusted sources within the political circles and grassroots opinion leaders point to a group of MCAs who have remained visible, consistent, and development-focused — factors said to be boosting their re-election prospects, only a Handful Safe as Majority Face Uncertain Political Future.
The MCAs believed to be leading the 2027 re-election pack include:
✅ Hon. Mark Ndingo – Yatta/Kwa Vonza Ward
✅ Hon. Alex Ng’ang’a – Miambani Ward
✅ Hon. Sylvester Kitheka – Matinyani Ward
✅ Hon. Dominic Mwamisi – Mutha Ward
✅ Hon. Nicholas Mutemi – Kisasi Ward
✅ Hon. Jeremia – Nguni Ward
✅ Hon. Sonko – Ikanga/Kyatune Ward
✅ Hon. Mamen – Nzambani Ward
These leaders have reportedly maintained strong grassroots ties, championed ward-level development, and navigated the murky waters of county politics with skill — earning them the confidence of a majority of their constituents.
On the flip side, many other MCAs are said to be “walking on a tight rope,” with public dissatisfaction over unfulfilled promises, lack of visibility, and poor service delivery threatening their political survival.
With voter awareness growing and 2027 campaigns already gaining momentum behind the scenes, the coming months are expected to be politically turbulent as MCAs scramble to reconnect with voters and secure their political future.
