   Introduction:

Leaders in Nyamira are divided over the location of the proposed Nyamira University, creating obstacles for the realization of this much-anticipated project.

 

Regional Disparities in Choice

Elected leaders from Borabu, West Mugirango, Kitutu Masaba, and North Mugirango constituencies advocate for different locations, risking the delay of the university’s establishment in the county.

 

Long-standing Lack of Higher Education

Despite being designated as a district in 1989, Nyamira remains one of the few counties in the country without a university, further emphasizing the significance of resolving the current impasse.

MPs Stake Their Claims

MPs like Joash Nyamoko (North Mugirango), Clive Gisairo (Kitutu Masaba), and Steve Mogaka (West Mugirango) champion diverse sites, such as Kiamogake, Manga Sengera, and the conversion of Senator Kebaso Secondary School, respectively. Borabu MP Patrick Osero proposes Nyansiongo as the ideal location.

Revival Efforts and Past Setbacks

Efforts to establish the university between 2015 and 2017 faced setbacks, with disagreements over taking over a secondary school in North Mugirango and proposals to start the university from scratch at Riakimai. Plans were abandoned after spending over Sh200 million on feasibility tours by the University of Eldoret, leaving the proposed institution in uncertainty and affecting student enrollment.
