COUNTY: Lamu

Hon. Shakila Abdalla Mohamed was the first Lamu County Woman Representative and a strong advocate for land rights and social development in Lamu. She is a Nominated Senator and National Secretary General of the Wiper Democratic Movement–Kenya (Wiper Patriotic Front), and is expected to bid for the Lamu County governorship in 2027, aiming to become Lamu’s first female governor.

My political agenda

Her strategic priorities for Lamu County include:

  • Promoting the blue economy and fisheries empowerment through investment in fish landing sites, market access and local production
  • Mediating long-standing conflicts between pastoralists and farmers and fostering peaceful co-existence among Lamu’s diverse communities
  • Reversing youth unemployment and poverty and rescuing the county from economic stagnation
  • Encouraging residents to register in large numbers so that the vote reflects local intent
