Speaker of the National Assembly Moses Wetangula is set to launch a competition in Bungoma County that will see chiefs and their assistants who have performed well in ID and voter registration by June 2026 receive a heavy cash prize.

Speaking in Bungoma, Wetangula said he will reward the best-performing chief and his assistant in ID and voter registration with Ksh1 million in June next year.

According to the speaker, the competition will be regulated by a team of MCAs and the Bungoma County Speaker, Emanuel Situma.

Emphasising the importance of an ID, Wetangula stressed that chiefs and their assistants should be at the forefront in ensuring that everyone over 18 years old has an ID.
