Dear Nairobian,
Today, I am officially announcing my candidacy for Nairobi County Women Representative in the 2027 general election.
This decision was not made lightly. It is the culmination of a lifetime of service — to my family, to my community, and to the ideals of justice and dignity that I learned at my mother's fireside.
I am running because I believe leadership is not about privilege. It is about service.
I am running because too many Nairobians struggle with unemployment, insecurity, rising living costs, poor healthcare, and limited economic opportunities.
I am running because we can change this — through honest leadership, inclusive development, and accountable use of public resources.
Join me. Together, we can build a Nairobi that works for everyone.
Everlyne Koech
Mama Mashinani
