Kiambu County Senator, Karungo wa Thang'wa, has spoken out following his ousting as the Chair of the Senate Roads & Transport Committee. In a candid and reflective statement shared on social media, the senator expressed his acceptance of the decision, pledging to continue his service to the nation with unwavering dedication.
"I knew it would happen! I expected it! The purge has been effected. I take it like a man and vow to soldier on, unbowed," Senator Karungo wrote, acknowledging the changes that led to his removal from the influential position. His words were a testament to his resilience and determination to push forward, despite the setback.
The senator took the opportunity to thank the "Yellow Party" (his political party) for "freeing up" his schedule, recognizing that the heavy responsibilities of chairing the Roads & Transport Committee had been demanding. "Chairing the Roads & Transport Committee at the @Senate_KE was great, but I guess progress was just too much to handle—I mean, I just couldn’t keep up with ‘barabara itoke Thika, iende Garissa, ifike Mandera, iende Rhamu, ifike Modagashe’ and all that jazz," he humorously remarked, referring to the ambitious infrastructure projects that were part of his portfolio.
Senator Karungo had previously been responsible for overseeing the development and expansion of the country's road network, which included major projects aimed at improving transportation across various regions of Kenya. His role in the committee had placed him at the heart of discussions about national infrastructure, particularly roads connecting vital areas of the country.
However, in light of his removal, the senator expressed a sense of liberation. "Now, with no shackles on my hands, it’s time to inject proper! —without speed bumps!" he quipped, signaling his readiness to take on new challenges and continue his work for the people of Kiambu County and the nation at large.
Karungo's statement also underlined his resolve to continue serving with his "head high," reaffirming his commitment to public service despite the change in his parliamentary role. "I continue serving the Nation and the People with my head high!" he concluded.
The senator's candid comments reflect a sense of determination, as he prepares to embrace new opportunities in his political career. While his time as the head of the Roads & Transport Committee has come to an end, Karungo wa Thang'wa remains a prominent figure in Kenyan politics, known for his strong advocacy for infrastructure development and service to his constituents. As he moves forward, his supporters are likely to continue watching closely, knowing that his commitment to progress and development remains unwavering.
