Sabina Wanjiru Chege (born 22 August 1978) is a Kenyan politician, former actress, and seasoned media professional who currently serves as a Nominated Member of Parliament in the National Assembly under the Jubilee Party, having taken up the position in 2022. She previously served two terms as the inaugural Woman Representative for Murang’a County (2013–2022), during which she rose to national prominence as chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Education, Research and Technology in her first term and later as chairperson of the influential Parliamentary Committee on Health from 2017 to 2022. In May 2023 she was declared acting leader and party whip of a breakaway Jubilee faction allied to President William Ruto, placing her at the centre of protracted internal party battles with former president Uhuru Kenyatta over control of the party’s direction and its place within the Azimio–Kenya Kwanza realignments. Born and raised in Murang’a County, Chege attended Mugoiri Girls High School before pursuing a Bachelor of Education (Arts), a Master’s in Communication and later a PhD in Communication at the University of Nairobi, alongside a Postgraduate Diploma in Public Relations from the Kenya Institute of Management and an MBA from Mount Kenya University. Before politics she built a successful media and communications career: she acted as “Rehema” in the iconic Kenyan TV soap Tausi and went on to work as a radio presenter at Kameme FM and Coro FM, then as head of marketing and programmes controller at Kameme FM and Kenya Broadcasting Corporation, and regional manager at Space Africa. In Parliament she has sponsored landmark legislation including the Breastfeeding Mothers Bill, the Kenya National Blood Transfusion Service Bill, and the controversial Horticultural Crops Authority Bill 2024—measures that have drawn both praise for advancing workers’ and consumers’ rights and criticism over regulation and commercialisation, underscoring her role as a highly visible and sometimes polarising figure in contemporary Kenyan politics.
