Julius Mugun, the head of the National Water Harvesting and Storage Authority (NWHSA), offered high praise for Emurua Dikir MP Johana Ngeno.
Mugun characterized Ngeno as an unselfish and committed leader who persistently fought for clean water availability in all homes across his electoral area.
According to Mugun, the deceased legislator frequently visited his office, continuously advocating for borehole drilling and water storage systems to address water scarcity in Emurua Dikir.
Mugun stated that Ngeno was not only effective in expressing the concerns of his constituents but also represented broader Kenyan society. Regarding water matters, he was deeply committed to ensuring every household had access to clean water.
Representing the Authority, his family, and personally, Mugun expressed sincere condolences to Ngeno’s relatives, friends, and fellow Members of Parliament.
We join fellow Kenyans in grieving the unfortunate death of our leader and Emurua Dikir representative along with all others aboard the doomed helicopter. To his family, friends, and colleagues in parliament, we offer our sympathies. May the Lord provide you with fortitude during this sorrowful period.
In another development, educators and students from Eldoret Achievers School also mourned the forthright MP, reminiscing about a notable meeting with him at Parliament the previous year.
During a visit to the National Assembly for educational purposes, the learners were graciously received by Ngeno, who urged them to value discipline and assume leadership roles.
Speaking on behalf of fellow leaders from Uasin Gishu, I extend a warm welcome to all students from Rift Valley, particularly those from Eldoret Achievers School. This is where legislation is formulated and significant decisions are made. Take pride in yourselves as you are the futureand that future begins today. It is essential that you maintain discipline,” Ngeno informed the students during the visit.
I recall this MP. He welcomed us at Parliament, and we are saddened by his passing,” stated Triza Namalwa, a sixth-grade student at Eldoret Achievers School.
