Clement Sloya Logova is the Member of Parliament for Sabatia Constituency in Vihiga County, elected in the 2022 general election on a United Democratic Alliance (UDA) ticket. Sabatia is the political home of Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi, and Sloya’s win marked a generational shift in a constituency long associated with the Mudavadi family. He hails from Ondeyo area in Sabatia and is often described as a humble, accessible, “people’s MP” with strong grassroots links. He is regarded as one of the younger MPs from Western Kenya, rising rapidly after the death of his father, a prominent local political figure, and consolidating youth support around his candidacy. Since entering the 13th Parliament, Sloya has focused heavily on education, infrastructure and youth programmes, branding himself as a “PlanMaster” for Sabatia’s long-term development. His NG-CDF office has channelled significant funds into multi-storey school buildings, junior secondary classrooms and bursaries, while he has also used sport—particularly football—as a tool for youth mobilisation and campaigns against gender-based violence.  Alongside development work, he has been a vocal participant in national debates, including on the Finance Bill and on labour disputes affecting health workers in Vihiga.
Elected MP for Sabatia (2022–present): Won the Sabatia seat on a UDA ticket in the August 2022 general election, becoming one of the youngest MPs in Musalia Mudavadi’s home constituency.
Sh250 million education infrastructure drive: Through NG-CDF, spearheaded an injection of about KSh 250 million into education projects over three years, including multi-storey school blocks, JSS classrooms, ablution facilities and major renovations across Sabatia schools.
Finance Bill backlash and heckling: Faced public criticism and heckling from constituents after he voted “YES” to the Finance Bill, with viral clips showing residents rejecting his attempt to justify the vote at a local gathering.
Accusations of “sympathy vote” politics: Some Sabatia commentators allege he benefited from sympathy votes following the death of a close family member, framing his rise as rooted in bereavement and local emotion rather than purely policy-based support—an interpretation debated in local forums.
Auditor-General/NG-CDF scrutiny: Media reports have linked Sabatia’s NG-CDF to Auditor-General queries on fund management, placing Sloya among MPs flagged for concerns around NG-CDF utilisation, though this scrutiny is largely at the institutional compliance level and not yet a concluded court finding.
Large-scale bursary support: Oversaw bursary allocations exceeding KSh 25 million in a single round, supporting thousands of secondary students and positioning education financing as a central pillar of his tenure.
Youth and GBV advocacy through sport: Launched a constituency-wide football tournament to create awareness around gender-based violence and teenage pregnancies, aligning Sabatia with the 16 Days of Activism campaign.
Patchy ward-level politics and perceptions: Intra-constituency tensions—especially in wards like Wodanga—have produced social-media campaigns urging residents to “reject” Sloya or criticising his alliances, showing a contested local political environment despite his development projects.
