Taita Taveta County located in Coastal Region is a diamond waiting to be polished.

The county land area is about 17,000 sq km of land. 11,000 sq m, about 2.7 million acres is designated for the Tsavo East and Tsavo West National parks that are home to the widest variety of natural wildlife created.

Laikipia County under my Senator Watch will ensure that criminals will no longer hide among us and will no longer terrorize our families, homes, businesses and places of Worship, with impunity as they seem to have been doing. I will collaborate with the efforts of the County Professionals, who have continued to develop new ideas of investment creation we will rejuvenate growth and develop agriculture and new industries. I will lead the effort to increase our schools to accommodate all those who need to go to school. And at the least lead to the building of one or two Universities before 2017....
I am an avid activist for education that provides excellence in core academics and the arts while cultivating the individual qualities and the strength of each child. Education that nurtures the whole child, creates community, celebrates diversity, supports freedom with responsibility and honors difference, strengths and interest. Education that enjoys a community as it makes the realization that it takes a village to educate a child and care for our natural environment. Education, we all have the chance to create a legacy and to become leaders to reckon with in our communities. Education that each and everyone can make change happen wherever one is. Pamoja Tunaweza! -Together we can!...
Growing up in Embu I would everyday look at Mount Kenya, a sight of beauty. As I grew up to the challenges we endure everyday while living in the world, the words, “There is no mountain you can’t climb,” made Mount Kenya to be always in my mind. These words have seen me explore different careers and opportunities in Kenya and abroad. They have led me to learning more and meeting people from all walks of life. As I share my origin, while in the U.S, I will talk about Mount Kenya and I get asked, “Why don’t we plan a trip to climb Mount Kenya?” If the times I have heard this question had resulted in me taking a group to climb the mountain, I would have by now with others climbed the mountain more than 100 times. ...
Florida State, my current location, receives 60 million visitors every year. Similarly, Kenya can attract 5 million visitors every year by end of 2017. This is the vision I have for Kenya. I’m willing to lead the way in structuring the right systems and policies that will enable Kenya to gradually open up its God given tourism sector in all 47 counties of Kenya. As a Representative of Nairobi County, and in conjunction with local authorities, businesses, and residents of Nairobi, I will institute the appropriate policies that will accommodate an increased flow of tourists through Nairobi, via Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. ...
Our present leadership has failed Kenya. Kenyan political leaders have failed to keep the goal of the economic vision for Kenya to one that would enable all parents to feed their children daily, educate them and keep them healthy. The year 2012 is a call for patriotic men and women of Kenya who have a passion to serve and are not looking to elevate themselves to a pedestal of “untouchables” through overtaxing Kenyans to pay themselves the highest pay in the world, grabbing land and misusing allocated CDF money. 2012 is the year Kenya changes and starts its economic rise. 2012 is the year Kenyans from abroad join the race. 2012 is the year Kenyans refuse poor leadership. I herewith declare my intentions to vie for the seat of Kiambu Senator. ...
Nyandarua County is endowed with adequate water resources. It can no longer be acceptable that whereas our own Malewa Dam services 30% of Nairobi’s water needs, hardly any household in Nyandarua County has reliable connection to piped water. The term of 2012 – 2017 will be for developing the plan that will see every household have a supply of clean water. During my young age, Nyandarua was the pride of the country with its school and students topping the nation; today this is not the case. Parents in Nyandarua can be assured that the education level will be back and Nyandarua will be on top again and after 5 years 2017 Nyandarua residents will have transformed the county to beauty, pristine as we work together. ...
Research has taught me that to invent something one has to put in a lot of hard work besides being forward looking. In the world of today, we celebrate many inventors who have shown that a determined mind can achieve a lot. Each year in the U.S, we hear of new technology inventions, medical breakthroughs and many others. This is achieved through a partnership between the government research institutions, higher education research institutions, private research industry and the hiring of bright-determined minds including providing resources to perform research. Although Kenya has many smart and brilliant minds, the government institution has failed Kenya for the collective political body has never had the goal of progressing Kenya through results oriented high caliber research which is the only way new inventions will be made in Kenya. This has led Kenyans being trapped in a cycle of poverty as they import every technology that helps sustain life. Not because Kenyans are not brilliant, but because the people they have put to government offices have failed them. I wish to correct this 2012 – 2017 and do start the process by first expressing interest to serve the people of Vihiga and Kenya. ...
The “1 million – 1 million” or “Double million” Economic Platform is the proposed economic plan that Dr. Wilson Endege and team have started working on for Diaspora 2012 candidates to contest on.
