Kenyan officials are encouraging people with disabilities to run for office in the 2027 General Election. Assistant Registrar of Political Parties, Agatha Wahome, made the appeal during a recent forum in Kajiado County. Wahome emphasized the importance of full integration of persons with disabilities into the political landscape, recognizing them as a significant demographic. The call to action aims to increase representation and participation of PWDs in governance. Advocates believe greater involvement will ensure their needs and perspectives are considered in policy-making. The initiative seeks to move beyond sensitization and actively support candidates with disabilities. This push for inclusivity reflects a broader effort to strengthen democratic processes in Kenya.
