Immediate former Gor Mahia treasurer Sally Bolo has thrown her hat in the ring for the Lang’ata Parliamentary seat in the coming 2022 General Elections. The firebrand administrator who is credited with digitizing Gor Mahia’s gate collection through e-ticketing during her tenure as treasurer is gunning for the seat from the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party. Lang’ata is currently represented in Parliament by Nixon Korir of the Jubilee Party.On Friday, I formally submitted my paper to the ODM NEB Office in Karen.This is proof of my determination to serve the people of Langata Constituency as their next MP.I’d like to thank Almighty God for his grace thus far and for allowing me to pursue this path of public service. pic.twitter.com/y3kCFCNP1b— Sally Bolo (@SallyBolo) March 13, 2022 A highly trained human resource practitioner with vast experience in the financial industry and sports management, Bolo, presented her nomination papers to Orange House on Friday 11th March 2022 accompanied by her supporters and expressed optimism in her quest to lead the Sub-County.“The decision was a culmination of thorough introspection and very wide and candid consultations with the great people of Lang’ata. Lang’ata Sub-County, once represented by H.E Raila Odinga needs a strong, wise, humble, listening and caring representative who espouses the great values our society is in dire need of.It is based on these needs and the apparent gap witnessed in the last four and half years that I present my candidature to the residents for careful vetting and consequent approval. I come packed with vast experience in the financial sector and sports management, two very important sectors to the youth,” said BoloBolo refused to draw the gender card insisting her qualification and ability is as good as any male aspirant in the race.Ready to serve with Honesty, Integrity and Accountability.@SallyBolo Langata MP 2022 pic.twitter.com/U7LgHMUpy1— Alfred Benedict Abur (@abur_alfred) March 13, 2022 “Being a woman in a male-dominated race hardly scares me. As a young person, my focus is to base my campaign on policies. Being a resident of Langa’ata I know the gaps that exist that need fixing. With constant consultations, transparent management and humane approach to issues affecting fellow residents I have a very strong conviction that we can make Lang’ata a shining beacon for others to emulate,” she added.The Sub-County has attracted a lot of interest from diverse political players but Bolo believes she will be the first woman to represent Lang’ata.The firebrand ex Gor Mahia official will embark on door to door campaigning ahead of ODM primaries from where her race will be half won should she clinch the Orange party’s ticket.
