Vihiga<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The entry of youthful and energetic\npoliticians seeking to dislodge Vihiga Senator George Khaniri from the much\ncoveted seat has send shivers to his camp and he is now a worried man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even Nominated MP Godfrey Osotsi and political greenhorns like Jackson Swadi Kegoye and Kennedy Kweya are also afraid of Mr. Ongadi and cannot match his mobilization skills. <\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Political pundits are of the view\nthat if Khaniri does not go back to the drawing board and restrategise on how\nhe can retain his seat, then he should prepare to be send home on early\nretirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The political storm that has been\nstarted by the young turks is not something that can just be wished away by the\nseasoned politicians. The youthful politicians are well endowed with resources\nand oratory skills which makes them command a huge following from the youths\nwho are the majority, women and the elderly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In short, the electorate are tired\nof the usual lies from the seasoned politicians and now want to inject fresh\nblood of youthful leaders to drive the development agenda of the county past\n2022 polls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the youthful leaders is Leo Busenah\nOngadi, 40, who has vowed to ensure the current Vihiga Senator George Khaniri\ngoes home on early retirement in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even Nominated MP Godfrey Osotsi\nand political greenhorns like Jackson Swadi Kegoye and Kennedy Kweya are also afraid\nof Mr. Ongadi and cannot match his mobilization skills. The trio have too declared\ntheir interest for the senatorial seat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has made inroads in almost every\ncorner of  the county trying to endear\nhimself to the electorate ahead of the 2022 polls and now he is the talk of the\ntown. He is loved by both the youth and the elderly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early Life and Education <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But who is this Ongadi? He was born and raised in Givigoi village.\nHe attended Olympic Primary School from Class 1-4 and then relocated upcountry.\nHe joined to Kinu Primary School in Hamisi Constituency for two years and then\nto Hamisi Primary School for class 7 and 8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After performing well in the Kenya Certificate of Primary\nEducation (KCPE), was enrolled to Givogi High School and after two years, he\njoined Butere Boys High School, where he sat for the Kenya Certificate of\nSecondary School (KCSE) exams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have been responsible for collecting and accounting for US public resources and I have learnt the discipline that has made Americans develop their country into a world class economy,\u201d Ongadi said. <\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

He would later join Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture\nand Technology (Jkuat) between 2003 \u2013 2005   to\npursue a Diploma in Information Technology, then went to Kenya Methodist\nUniversity (KeMU) for his a degree in Business Information Technology between\n2008 \u2013 2011 and then to the University of \nNairobi (UoN) for a Master\u2019s degree in Project Management between 2011\n-2013. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He is currently pursuing another Masters in Computer Science\nat the Virginia International University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Employment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Ongadi is a Program Lead at the City of Alexandria in\nVirginia, USA where he is responsible for several multi-million-dollar programs\nthat focuses on the youth and elderly welfare, workforce, cultural activities, recreational\nparks and wellness services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Politics <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ongadi avers that he joined\npolitics not to enrich himself but to bring change that is needed to ensure\nthose in power account for every single cent they receive.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c<\/strong>I\nhave been responsible for collecting and accounting for US public resources and\nI have learnt the discipline that has made Americans develop their country into\na world class economy,\u201d Ongadi said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFailure to account for even five dollars can land one to prison\nsame to the person someone who has stolen a million dollars. The system of\naccountability is so tight that one mistake can land the whole department in\ntrouble. That\u2019s what we need in Kenya,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Senator Seat<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The flamboyant politician said that he chose to try a stab at\nthe senatorial seat in a bid to ensure that he marshals for resources to\ndevelop the county using his connections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Senatorial seat does not have any resource allocation at\nthe moment and as a senator, I will look for donors through my networks and\nmake partnerships with corporates so as to get resources to finance my\ndevelopment agenda,\u201d said Ongadi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He added: \u201cI have already made a strategic plan that will\ndrive my development agenda. We have Vihiga youths talented with acting and\nsinging and will tap on to that talent. I want Vihiga to be like the Igbo State\nof Nigeria, producing professionals in the entertainment industry,\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 He likened them to\nsportsmen who he (Ongadi) says they earn millions though they never went past\nsecondary school education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am not motivated by cars. I drive top-of-the-range cars here in the US. I am not motivated by status, or looking for employment. I am not looking to purchase houses, I already have them. I am not in this race so I can take my kids to study abroad. My kids already study here in the US. My intention is to serve my people of Vihiga,\u201d said Ongadi<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have very talented young people who if given a chance,\ncan earn their livelihood from their talent. Diamond Platinumz has created over\n5,000 direct jobs, as dancers, songwriters, floor managers, events coordinators,\nequipment players, drivers and security officers,\u201d said Ongadi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He added: \u201cIf I can create only two local Diamond Platinumz\nin Vihiga, you will see their effect on the local Vihiga economy. I will create\npartnerships with established musicians like my friends Reuben Kigame and\nGloria Muliro, and the likes of Diamond Platinumz, Ali Kiba, Susumila and the\nlike  to help nurture local talent,\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aspirant who is a front runner for the senatorial seat\nsaid that by him choosing to venture into politics was not motivated by the\nmere fact of getting rich but to serve the locals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am one aspirant not motivated by status and money. I am leaving\na well-paying job in the United States and seek a political office that whose\nearnings are very low as compared to what I get currently,\u201d said Ongadi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My intention is to serve my\npeople of Vihiga,\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Running campaigns from\nabroad<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ongadi says that he has well-coordinated campaign structure\nthat is able to reach all the corners of the county, adding that he has been\nable to initiate development projects that have seen beneficiaries become self-reliant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c<\/strong>Kenyans\nin diaspora are also supporting my activities on the ground by giving me there\nmoney. They are very supportive and are supporting in ways you can never\nbelieve. At least, they know they have one of their own directly contributing\nto the welfare of their people back at home,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He says that they are very united unlike back in Kenya where politicians have divided the locals along tribal lines, saying those supporting him are not only from Vihiga but also from other regions in Kenya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ongadi said they (Kenyans in diaspora) have been conned millions\nof shillings by so many people including their close relatives by telling them\nto finance nonexistent projects back at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis will be a thing of the past once I start working as a\nsenator. I have several drafts of bills which I already have and will need\npolishing so as to support our sisters and brothers in diaspora like the Diaspora\nDevelopment Agency Bill which will streamline and reduce red tape bureaucracy\nfor them to invest in Kenya,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He committed himself to work with all elected leaders in the\ncounty with the main aim of bettering the lives of the electorate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
