Lamu Women Representative-elect Monica Muthoni has joined William Ruto-led Kenya Kwanza Alliance.
Muthoni who was elected on an independent ticket joined Kenya Kwanza on Wednesday, just two days after IEBC declared Ruto winner of the presidential race.
Muthoni won the Lamu woman rep seat after garnering 16,480 votes.
Ruto welcomed Muthoni to the coalition at his Karen residence, soon after meeting with all elected leaders under Kenya Kwanza.
Muthoni was first nominated to the Lamu County Assembly on the National Alliance (TNA) Party ticket in 2013.
In the 2017 general election, she vied for the Lamu Woman Rep seat but lost to Ruweida Mohamed Obo.
Born 30 years ago, Muthoni relied on well-wishers for her education right from primary school up to university.
She has a degree in International Relations from the United States International University.
Muthoni is the former head of community liaison and stakeholders’ engagement at Lapset (Lamu Port - South Sudan - Ethiopia - Transport).
