Prior to his 2017 MP campaign, Hon Meshack Kitmutai joined active politics from UDM to URP. He campaigned as a young political novice to a remarkable and strong household identity. He got endorsed by the Kalenjin elders and the Emgwen Community to run for the seat of a Member of Parliament, Emgwen. This was a start in his great journey as it was important to mobilize the public so as to ensure victory in the forthcoming elections.

Meshack did significant works by bringing in reflector jackets to motorists, helping in raising funds for the less fortunate and coming up with foundations that now help the youth in Emgwen. From his humble beginnings, Meshack chose the political strategy of "top down, one way" communication, inclusions and engagements with the public. Meshack Kimutai is the founder of two multimillion shilling companies. His maiden company Seal Travel International Limited has created employment to many people. Kimutai who is currently on the top board in the ratings for Emgwen parliamentary race at the moment warned The Kosgeys' Family of dire political consequences in cases of manipulating and denying the people of Nandi County a chance to enjoy development opportunities.

He insisted that his main concern is to unite the people of Emgwen Constituency and Nandi County through developments. He is also keen on getting the Nandi residents, especially youths and women opportunities that the Jubilee Government is spearheading. Meshack Kimutai believes in transformation of our Nandi County. Let’s join hands together and effect the change. The time is now. #TeamChapakazi
