Lindy Wafula For Makadara Parliamentary Seat



Makadara Constituents, Friends, Ladies and Gentlemen



It is with great pleasure that I today officially announce that I will be contesting for the Makadara Parliamentary seat. This decision follows an assessment of the deteriorating state of our constituency and our nation.



I am dedicated to nation building from the grassroots. I support brand new ideas and A brand new Leadership. The raising of a new BREED of Leaders that is without GREED is what Makadara in Particular and Kenya in general needs today and I am proud to be counted amongst young leaders in Kenya who dare to break the tradition of old tyranny and patronage that has caused poor people misery and oppression.



I dare to take on those who call themselves "Experienced Politicians" because they have wasted our vote, our trust, our time and our resources with their usual political rhetoric. What Makadara needs is not titles of big men but the service of a visionary leader.



From the abode of a humble family raised in Kaloleni Estate by a father (the Late Stanley Michael Wafula) who was the coach of Black Mamba FC and a mother (the Late Domitilla Fwaya Wafula) who was sister to Former Kaloleni Councillor James Fwaya, I have learnt that "whoever desires to become great, must first be a servant" (Matt 20:26).



My vision and accomplishments in community empowerment and development cannot be understated. I have given myself to service from my school days at St. John's primary School in Kaloleni estate. In my early youth, I was left with the responsibility of taking care of my sibblings when my dear parents succumbed to HIV/AIDS and died. Being a head of an orphaned household was not easy but I dared to take the responsibility that today have given sweet fruits seeing my sibblings economically independent. I have been a voice to the voiceless, and a keeper of many poor households in Makadara. The number of orphans and widows I have assisted in my community, to find food and shelter and an education is a task that I joyfully undetake because I am called to service.



The Community development projects I have initiated amongst underpriviledged women and youth for self help in different parts of Kenya testify that I am a Visionary Leader that Makadara needs today.



A movement has begun. A tide of change is moving and it is unstopable. The movement is a wave that is empowering communities across Kenya to embrace an agenda for CHANGE. I urge you all, My dear Makadara constituents, listen carefully to this small still Voice of REASON, we cannot afford another season of misery and hopelessness. We cannot afford another time of unemployment for the youth, lack of Water in our taps, Insecurity, an increase in slum households that we are forced to become because a few rich people are pushing us day in day out into adverse poverty.



It is time for change, it is time for a Brand New Beginning. We are matching together as one towards a destiny bright with Change, Vision, Development and Dignity



I humbly send you forth to the byways and highways of Makadara, Nairobi and Kenya. Let us shout loud our VOICE OF REASON that It is a New beginning of BRAND NEW IDEAS and BRAND NEW LEADERSHIP



A Vote for Lindy WAFULA is a vote for the young and old. For women and men. For change and Development. Register as Voter in Makadara and Let's use our votes to bring about sound Change.



For God, My Country and My Consituents



Yours Maidservant,
Lindy Wafula
