Omanga’s participation has sparked discussion, especially because Kenyan politics often features sharp divisions between leaders.
Her move to stand alongside Babu Owino and Edwin Sifuna has drawn attention from supporters and critics alike.
Some observers see it as a sign that political leaders are willing to put aside differences when it comes to public engagement.
In her message, Omanga did not dwell on party lines or political rivalries. Instead, she emphasized unity and the importance of focusing on citizens.
Her statement suggested that the tour is not about individual ambitions, but about raising issues that affect everyday Kenyans, including the cost of living, job opportunities, and access to services.
Kakamega is expected to host a series of activities during the visit. Organizers say leaders will meet residents, address public gatherings, and hear directly from community members.
The planned camping of leaders in the area is being presented as a sign of solidarity with local residents.
Political analysts note that tours like Linda Mwananchi often serve both civic and political purposes.
While they provide a platform for leaders to interact with citizens, they also allow politicians to strengthen their presence on the ground.
For Omanga, joining the tour marks another step in her active involvement in national conversations even after serving as a nominated senator.
She remains vocal on social and political matters, regularly using her online platforms to express her views.
