Hon. Tim Wanyonyi has been instrumental in consolidating ODM’s dominance in Westlands Constituency.

Under his leadership as the current ODM Chairperson in Westlands, the party won all ward-level MCA seats, including Kangemi, Kitisuru, Mountain View, and Parklands, with Karura won by an Azimio coalition affiliate.

His personal victory in the Westlands parliamentary race saw him garner over 30,000 votes more than his closest UDA challenger, further underscoring his popularity and the trust voters place in him.

Raila Odinga, the ODM Party Leader and Azimio Presidential Candidate, also received substantial support in Westlands, securing 55,000 votes.

Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna and Woman Representative Esther Passaris similarly benefited from Tim Wanyonyi’s grassroots mobilization efforts, receiving significant support from Westlands voters.
