Githunguri MP Hon. Gathoni Wamuchomba has been hailed as a trailblazer in Kenyan politics, celebrated for her boldness, independence, and unwavering commitment to justice. Her fearless leadership was recognized on Saturday at the Jamhuri 2024 Awards in Nairobi, where she was named Best Member of Parliament in Kenya and Best MP in Kiambu County.
Wamuchomba, who represents the Githunguri constituency, expressed her gratitude to supporters via her X (formerly Twitter) handle. “Elated to receive two awards during the Jamhuri Awards last evening: The Best MP in Kenya and Best in Kiambu County. A win for me is a win for all who follow and support me,” she wrote.
Known for her courage to challenge oppressive policies, Wamuchomba has earned respect across the political spectrum.

Her accolades at the Jamhuri Awards reflect the recognition of her tireless efforts and her ability to remain steadfast in the face of adversity. Constituents and admirers have lauded her as a lioness in Kenya’s political arena, a leader who prioritizes the welfare of the people above all else.
As Hon. Gathoni Wamuchomba continues to break barriers and champion the causes of justice and equity, her legacy grows as an inspiring testament to the strength of standing firm in one’s convictions.
