A conversation has sparkled through the X platform following the post of Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro on the launch of Kiharu Masomo Bora 2025.
Earlier on, the MP posted on his social media platforms confirming the launch of Kiharu Masomo Bora 2025 at Mugoiri Mixed Day Secondary School. The event was graciously attended by Ms Nancy Njau, CEO Family Bank, Mr Shaka Kariuki – Chairman, Kuramo Capital, Dr Purity Ngina – CEO NGEC among others guests attended.
The MP notified that the programme covers all the over 10,000 learners in day secondary schools within the constituency.
This attracted various reactions from X users who expressed their minds concerning Kiharu constituency against other constituencies.
Dikembe argued that Kiharu is a small constituency with lesser number of schools compared to Ndhiwa constituency and even further stated that it should be scrapped off and merged.
“Kiharu is a small constituency that should have been scrapped off and merged with proper boundaries delimitation. With less than 67 schools (both primary and secondary), yet receives the same amount of CDF as expansive Ndhiwa, with more than 400 schools. As budget chair, Ndindi is able to chop off more national govt resources. He can then parade his ‘development’ and be celebrated by those who do not understand that he runs one of the smallest electoral units gobbling, unfairly, large national resources. Beneficiaries of this uneven resource equity will then come on these platforms to lecture the rest of us,” he wrote.
Following Dikembe’s post, different users have also raised their voices and even gone further to do background checks. JK said that misinformation is steroid while his background check stated that Kiharu has 231 schools compared to Ndhiwa’s 208.
“Yours is misinformation on steroids. Kiharu at 231 has more schools than your Ndhiwa at 208,” affirmed JK.
Jk’s post was backed by Chris Mathenge and Wangari M.
“Contrary to this, Ndhiwa constituency has actually less schools than Kiharu,” said Chris.
“Well, Kiharu has 231 public schools, while Ndhiwa has 208. Kiharu isn’t small, it actually has two sub counties,” said Wangari.
The matter went further sparking diverse opinions among users with some questioning quality over quantity. Otieno Duma a vocal user emphasized on the need of better equipments, stating “Well pointed sir. Can we see the 67 schools impacted by the Ndhiwa CDF kitty?”
Otieno received backing from ‘Kenya must work for mwananchi’ who responded, “Just scale down Ndhiwa to 67 best schools and show us what Owino Martin has done.”
The Nyanza Review conducted a comprehensive background check, shedding light on the distribution of educational institutions in two contrasting constituencies.
Ndhiwa Constituency, spanning a vast 676 square kilometers boosts 218 schools comprising of 162 primary schools and 56 secondary school. Kiharu with relatively smaller are of 577 square kilometers surpasses Ndhiwa in numbers hosting 231 schools— 170 primary schools and 61 secondary schools.
The conversation also sparked questions about the public understanding of their rights. Uncertainty persists on whether residents on larger constituencies are entitled to less than those in smaller ones.
