July 28, 2026 PRISTONE 2 min read

Sammy Douglas Waweru Kamau has taken the Oath of Office as the Member of Parliament for Ol Kalou Constituency following his victory in the parliamentary by-election held on 16 July 2026.

Kamau formally assumed office as the Member of Parliament for Ol Kalou Constituency after taking the Oath of Office and signing the official Oath Register.

He was accompanied by Kipipiri MP Wanjiku Muhia and Roysambu MP Augustine Kamande Mwafrika.

The Ol Kalou parliamentary seat fell vacant following the death of David Njuguna Kiaraho in March 2026 after a short illness. Kiaraho was serving his third term in Parliament.

Kamau, who contested the seat on a Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) ticket, secured a victory after garnering 35,440 votes.

A native of Ol Kalou in Nyandarua County,  Kamau attended AC Primary School in the Karau/Kaimbaga area before joining Utumishi Boys High School for his secondary education.

He later earned a Bachelor’s degree in Agricultural Economics from the University of Nairobi.

Kamau first ventured into elective politics in 2013 when he was elected the inaugural Member of County Assembly (MCA) for Karau Ward on a TNA/DP ticket. Before his election to Parliament, he served as the Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) Coordinator for Nyandarua County, where he spearheaded grassroots party mobilisation.

Kamau will serve the remainder of the 13th Parliament until the next General Election, scheduled for August 2027.
