The Omoh Foundation Chief Executive Officer Nicholus Okach on Saturday reached out to residents of Laini Saba and Makina in Kibera through donations of pampers, food items and other basic supplies, sparking celebrations within the two villages.
Foundation officials who delivered the items said Mr. Okach was unable to attend the event but had promised to continue supporting vulnerable families in the area.
“The CEO has sent us with these supplies and will be coming back again. His aim is to see lives in Kibera improve,” one official told the gathering.
Speaking to the media by phone, Mr. Okatch confirmed that he will be seeking the Kibera Parliamentary seat in 2027, but noted that his current priority is community welfare.
“For now, my focus is helping families regain dignity through better shelter, food support and education for their children,” he said.
Young mothers who received the donations praised the foundation, saying the gesture had brought hope at a time when many households were struggling.
“We thank him because he has remembered mothers who are often forgotten,” said Mary Achieng, a resident of Makina. “Even just pampers lift a big burden from us.”
Another mother, Lucy Atieno, said the support showed genuine concern for the community.
“He is not just talking. He is doing something we can see,” she said. “If he continues like this, we will support him all the way.”
Others said the foundation’s housing projects had already started making a difference.
“Some of us live in leaking houses,” said Jane Njeri from Laini Saba. “If he can fix shelter the same way he is helping with food, then he is the leader we need.”
Residents urged the foundation to continue returning to the area, saying the assistance had restored dignity to many families.
“We believe in him because he has shown us action,” another mother added. “We will stand with him
