Kenya, November 18 2025 - Speaker of the national assembly Mosses Wetangula has drummed up support for Ford Kenya candidate Hassan Aden Kolosho for Fafi ward representative ahead of by-election.
Wetangula who was the chief guest at an event in Hagadera to fund raise burnt market the ford Kenya candidate’s integrity and commitment to the community remain unquestionable.
The Fafi ward fell vacant after a long-standing dispute in the 2022 elections that ended with a long court battle between Feysal Gedi and Hassan Kolosho. The national assembly speaker addressed the residents on the ongoing frustrations surrounding the issuance of national identity cards in Northern Kenya.
“I expressed deep concern that despite the government’s removal of vetting requirements, applicants continue to face unreasonable delays in obtaining their IDs,” he said. President issued a clear directive, fully supported by Parliament, that every eligible Kenyan must receive their national ID without hurdles, regardless of where they live,” added the speaker.
He announced that parliament will summon the Interior Cabinet Secretary next week to explain these persistent delays of ID processing since every Kenyan, including those in Garissa, Mandera and Wajir, deserves fairness, dignity, and timely access to national identification documents.

Wetangula also spoke of the need to open the Kenya Somalia border for smooth business between the two countries adding in his home county that borders with Uganda there is free entry and movement of goods which he said should be replicated in Kenya-Somalia border.
He acknowledges that Northeastern Kenya has been marginalized and under-developed in terms of roads network, education, security, and health, reiterating that all that have been given a priority in the President Ruto administration.
“SHA is there to help every Kenyan to access health care, a tarmac road is connecting Garissa to Mandera and this region,” he told crowds at Hagadera.
