Alfred Mutai, former Sirikwa Ward MCA, garnered 25,365 beating former National Assembly Deputy Speaker Moses Cheboi who got 20, 395.
Mutai was declared winner of the Kuresoi North parliamentary seat by the returning officer.
The lawmaker, whose political star appears to be rising, was vying on Deputy President William Ruto's UDA party.
After the win, Mutai revealed that in the past, he used to burn charcoal in the forest.
"Once upon a time I used to burn charcoal in the forest; however, now we will lead this nation pushing from where others left. "As we know the current economic situation is not good so we want to save our economy," Mutai said after the win.
During a past interview with Nation Mutai noted after losing his parents at a tender age he turned to different trades for survival.
"Losing a parent at a young age was not easy. It forced me to work at a tender age to join hands with my elder siblings to support the others and also so that I (could earn) money for my school fees, but luckily I completed my studies after hustling all through,” he told the Nation in a previous interview.
Mutai has been the MCA for Sirikwa Ward since he was elected in 2017 before joining the parliamentary race on a UDA ticket in April 2022.
He also revealed an incident in which he was arrested and charged in a Molo court after forest rangers raided his house after receiving information that he had harvested more than 1,000 tree trunks.
After failing to raise his bond he was detained at Nakuru GK Prison but was later released to serve 6-month probation.
“I knew the business was illegal but I had no alternative. I needed to go to school myself and my siblings were also studying, but I thank the magistrate for hearing me out during mitigation before sentencing," Mutai noted in the interview.
