Community Urged to Support Mochongoi TVC

Leadership and members of the community have been urged to support Mochongoi Technical and Vocational College in Baringo South.

The college strategically located a few meters from Kabel Trading Centre, off Marigat-Karandi-Nyahururu Road, is also accessible from Laikipia’s side.

"Our tailor-made courses are available for all students who completed form four," Principal Benjamin Kimitei said.

It was established in September 2019 to help students from Baringo and Laikipia counties acquire technical skills.

Recently, area MP Charles Kamuren offered to sponsor 100 students under the National Government Constituency Development Fund (NG-CDF), only 50 have availed.

Kimitei urges community and local leaders to embrace and support the school.

He further said the institution grapples with challenges of accessibility owing to pathetic roads, calling upon area MCA Kipruto Kimosop to look into it.

The principal also took issue with the unsettled land dispute, "which has bedevils our college."

"It is our wish that the land issue be handled once and for all to bring about peace and tranquillity."

Mwaita Roots for Stormy Comeback 2027

Hon. Sammy Mwaita vied and won dethroning Gideon Moi to become Baringo Central MP in 2007.

He led for two terms before he was overthrown by Hon. Joshua Kandie in 2017 and 2022.

Mwaita is known for accomplishing hundreds of projects during his tenure as MP for the expansive constituency, which covered entirely up to the current Baringo South.

Through Constituency Development Fund(CDF), otherwise currently known as National Government Constituency Development Fund (NG-CDF), he accomplished among others construction of schools, Dispensaries, Chiefs offices, infrastructure, Pan dams which were actively in use up to date.

He also retains the legacy of lobbying to employ hundreds of jobless youths, especially teachers, he ensured they were placed under permanent and pensionable by the Teachers Service Commission(TSC).

To his electorates, the then astute legislator is vying again for the same seat in 2027, and he therefore takes this early opportunity to ask for your vote.
