Busia Woman Representative Hon. Catherine Omanyo has set tongues wagging and hopes soaring after hosting a groundbreaking Economic Empowerment Forum at Busende Primary School, Matayos — a bold display of leadership that drew top national figures and electrified the county.
The high-profile event, focused on uplifting women and small-scale traders through SACCO-driven initiatives, attracted none other than Deputy President H.E. Prof. Kithure Kindiki, National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula, and Busia Governor Dr. Paul Otuoma — signaling strong state support for Omanyo’s grassroots push.
“Our women are the engine of our economy,” declared Hon. Omanyo. “Empowering them is not just progress — it’s justice.”
The forum amplified the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda, with Omanyo pledging to expand her Wezesha Mama and Inua Jamii programs, targeting vulnerable families and GBV survivors. Her message was clear: real change starts at the bottom.
Analysts say Omanyo is fast emerging as a national force, combining fierce advocacy with practical solutions. With eyes now on her planned rollouts in Teso South and beyond, her model of people-first politics is reshaping how leadership is defined in Western Kenya.
As cheers echoed through Matayos, one thing became undeniable — Hon. Catherine Omanyo isn’t just talking transformation. She’s delivering it.
