In a recent study conducted by Timely Kenya, Nominated Senator Crystal Asige has emerged as one of the top-performing lawmakers in the Senate, earning recognition for her notable legislative contributions. The analysis, which reviewed Senate activities between August 2023 and August 2024, highlights Asige’s exemplary performance alongside other distinguished senators.
Crystal Asige, who has been in the Senate for two years, stands out for her success in sponsoring and passing significant legislation. Among her key achievements was the Startup Senate Bill, which is lauded for its potential to revolutionize the entrepreneurial landscape in Kenya by providing a supportive framework for startups.
Asige’s inclusion in the top ranks demonstrates her commitment to addressing pressing national issues through innovative legislative solutions. Her work in the Senate has not only garnered attention but also positioned her as a leading voice among lawmakers advocating for sustainable economic growth.
The Timely Kenya study also places Asige alongside other prominent senators, including Nandi County’s Samson Cherargei, who is noted for the Employment Bill, and Homa Bay’s Moses Kajwang, recognized for the County Boundaries Bill. These senators, along with Asige, have been instrumental in shaping key policies that impact various sectors across the country.
Additionally, Asige is among the senators with the most motions in the House, reflecting her active engagement in Senate debates and discussions. This level of participation is mirrored by other top-performing senators such as Busia County’s Okiya Omtata, who leads in the number of motions presented.
The study also highlights the overall public presence of senators, with Nairobi’s Edwin Sifuna, Okiya Omtata, and Richard Onyonka of Kisii County ranking high in this category. Despite this, Asige’s legislative impact remains a standout achievement, earning her a spot as one of the most active and effective senators in the country.
