Gloria Orwoba has officially been replaced as a United Democratic Alliance (UDA) nominated Senator following a gazette notice issued by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Chairperson, naming Consolata Nabwire as her replacement.
Orwoba was expelled from the party over allegations of disloyalty and violation of party rules.
UDA Secretary General Hassan Omar confirmed through a press release that the party’s disciplinary committee had unanimously voted to expel her after several petitions citing violations of Article 29 of the party’s constitution.
Consolata Nabwire, who was designated as Orwoba’s replacement in May 2025, extended her appreciation to the Party Leader, President William Ruto, for nominating her to the Senate under the Kenya Kwanza government. She also thanked the UDA Party and its members for the overwhelming support and congratulatory messages she received during this milestone.
She reaffirmed her commitment to representing the people of Bungoma County in the Senate effectively.

Consolata has been championing Kenya Kwanza policies at the grassroots level, particularly in Bungoma County.
She has actively participated in party political meetings in the Western region and has been an ardent supporter of President William Ruto since his tenure as Deputy President.
Previous Role of the Newly Nominated Senator
Previously, she served as the Chief Officer for Public Administration in Bungoma County, having been appointed on March 11, 2014, by Governor Kenneth Lusaka.
Her role included ensuring efficient public service delivery, managing human resources, and implementing policies to enhance governance.

Her term, however, faced controversy when she was suspended in 2015 amid allegations of fraud.
Her appointment was later terminated the same year. She challenged the decision in court, but her petition was dismissed on September 15, 2016. She formally resigned in mid-2017 and was cleared by Bungoma County officials, although part of her dues were deducted.
Consolata holds a Master of Arts in Project Planning and Management from the University of Nairobi. She pursued her secondary education at St. Mary’s Mumias Girls High School.
