\nAfricaPress-Kenya:<\/strong> Kisumu Woman Rep Rozaah Buyu has emerged the best nationally in the latest\u00a0Infotrak\u2019S MPs performance rating.<\/p>\n

In the survey released on Saturday, Buyu emerged position one with 61.5 per cent approval rating while her Homa Bay counterpart\u00a0Gladys Wanga emerged second scored 61.0 per cent.<\/p>\n

Lamu Woman Rep Rueida Mohamed emerged third with 60.0 per cent while her Samburu counterpart Leshoomo Maison was fourth with 59.1 per cent approval ratings.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Standard Digital on phone, Buyu (pictured) hailed the ratings saying she is happy her work and prudent management of public funds have been recorgnised.<\/p>\n

She attributed her good ratings to an inclusive approach she adopted which has seen her efforts felt in all corners of the county.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnlike other politicians who sometimes want to punish areas that didn\u2019t vote for them, I took a new path of embracing everyone and this has borne fruit,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Buyu said to make her work easier and to ensure every part of the county is covered, she opened up offices in each of the seven sub-counties with one for coordination purposes in Kisumu Central<\/p>\n

She said she divided Kisumu into various segment of age and economic activities to enable her to streamline her programmes and to help her respond needs of specific groups and segments.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe did a proper mapping and identified each and every group\u2019s needs to help us budget well with the little resource we get,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Unlike other politicians who delegate duties, Buyu said she personally get involved in various activities which have endeared her to the people.<\/p>\n

Lobbying<\/strong><\/p>\n

She said due to little resources, she has been lobbying for projects from NGOs, County and National government to supplement their budget.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith obvious budget constraints, I knock doors of various National government offices and other NGOs to pull projects that can help our people,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Buyu also cited the empowerment projects she has initiated among the youth, the boda boda and jua kali sector as some of the areas that might have added her marks.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have paid close attention to talent nurturing amongst the youth, skill empowering training for girls after form four, value addition activities for jua kali sector, boda boda ownership empowerment project.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kiambu Woman Rep Gathoni Wamuchoma was the worst-ranked at position 47 with an approval rating of 39.0 per cent.<\/p>\n

Methodology<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to Infotrak, the performance rating adopted the Likert scale questioning style which uses 1 \u2013 10 Scale where 1 is very poor and 10 excellent.<\/p>\n

Infotrak said the rating for each elected leader were derived by getting the combined frequencies from all the respondents for a respective ward, constituency or county depending on the type of leader.<\/p>\n

For Woman Reps the combined frequencies for all the wards in the respective counties are used.<\/p>\n

\u201cEach respondent provides a score or rating for the performance of the respective elected leaders based on their individual perception and understanding,\u201d read the statement.<\/p>\n

The overall elected leaders\u2019 performance Index was then computed by taking responses from respondents in each respective county and the mean for that county calculated to determine the county\u2019s Optimism Index<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
