Kenyans across all 47 counties went for election on August 2022 for six elective seats, among them senators.
Each county was set to elect a senator and here is the list of all elected who sit in the upper house of the Parliament of Kenya who represent the counties and serve to protect the interests of the counties and their governments.
Senators, like MPs participate in the law-making function of Parliament, allocate national revenue among counties and exercise oversight over state officers especially governors.
