Cabinet Secretary for EAC, ASALs, and Regional Development, Hon. Peninah Malonza (EGH), has described the silence of Kitui County Women Representative Hon. Irene Kasalu as “waunting.” This choice of words implies that CS Malonza perceives Hon. Kasalu’s lack of vocal participation or engagement in parliamentary activities as noticeable and perhaps even unsettling.
The term “waunting” suggests that Hon. Kasalu’s silence is not just a mere absence of speech, but rather it stands out and raises questions or concerns. It conveys a sense of expectation or desire for Hon. Kasalu to be more active, vocal, and involved in her role as a representative.
By publicly commenting on Hon. Kasalu’s silence, Hon. Malonza is drawing attention to what she perceives as a gap or deficiency in Hon. Kasalu’s performance as a leader. This could serve as a call to action for Hon. Kasalu to reassess her approach and become more engaged in parliamentary proceedings and other relevant activities that impact the constituents of Kitui Central.
The remarks by Hon. Malonza highlight the importance of active participation, collaboration, and accountability among leaders to effectively address the needs and concerns of the people they represent. It will be interesting to see how Hon. Kasalu responds to this public criticism and whether it leads to any changes in her approach to her role as a Women Representative.

Kitui voters should be very careful not to elect such a leader like kasalu to be our Gov. In Kitui.
Never we cannot be taken for a ride to vote for her.
Let forget this post.
