From Power Corridors to Poultry Pens: The Quiet Life of Wakoli Bifwoli
The Kenyan political landscape is a relentless theater where relevance is the ultimate currency.
For many, the loss of a seat marks a descent into a “political hole” that is notoriously difficult to climb out of after years of enjoying the trappings of power.
However, a viral video featuring former Bumula Member of Parliament, Sylvester Wakoli Bifwoli, suggests that some seasoned veterans are finding peace far away from the noisy corridors of the capital.
In the trending footage, the man once known for his sharp tongue and vibrant presence in the National Assembly is seen in a different light. Dressed in casual farm attire, Bifwoli is captured feeding chicken at his rural farm.

Accompanied by a farmhand, the former legislator appears focused and content, carefully checking on the progress of his poultry venture. The video has sparked widespread conversation online, with many Kenyans praising his transition into agribusiness as a dignified “Plan B” after politics.
A Legacy of Humor and Service
Wakoli Bifwoli’s political journey began long before he became a household name. A teacher by profession and a former trade unionist with KNUT, he first entered Parliament in 2002.
He served as the MP for Bumula for two terms (2002–2013) and rose to the rank of Assistant Minister for Lands in the late President Mwai Kibaki’s Grand Coalition Government.
Bifwoli was famously regarded as one of Kenya’s most “humorous” politicians. He was known for his candid, often comical outbursts, such as his 2012 presidential bid where he famously vowed to legalize busaa (a traditional brew).
Despite his wit, he was a serious advocate for land reforms and teacher welfare. Today, as he trades policy papers for poultry feed, Bifwoli remains a testament to the fact that there is indeed life—and productivity—after the ballot.
