She campaigned alongside ODM leader Raila Odinga first cousin, former Gem MP Jakoyo Midiwo and former Rarieda MP Nicholas Gumbo.
She also worked with various Non-Governmental Organisations for more than 10 years.

The 54-year-old ex-MP died at Nairobi Hospital.
Jakoyo’s cousin Ruth Odinga while confirming the tragic news said the former legislator suffered a cardiac arrest.
