Mugirango South Member of Parliament Silvanus Osoro turned heads online after sharing a video of himself preparing to ride a sleek, posh motorbike from Nairobi to his hometown in Kisii. The legislator documented the moments before he set off, showing off his riding gear and helmet as he geared up for the long journey.
In the clip, Osoro appears dressed in a red T‑shirt and black sweatpants, which he layered with a protective jacket, boots, gloves and a reflector to boost visibility while on the road. He revved the motorbike’s engine and rode off toward the gate, prompting mixed reactions online from those who were surprised that someone would attempt such a long trip on two wheels.
Osoro captioned the post: “From Nairobi to Kisii on two wheels. Etago, see you in a few,” sparking a flurry of comments from social media users. Some praised his boldness and determination, with one saying he could one day be president. Others joked about the bike’s engine size and questioned how long the trip might take. A few urged him to upgrade to a larger motorcycle for comfort on such a demanding route.
The video reflects Osoro’s active presence on social media and his willingness to share personal moments with the public, bridging his role as a national lawmaker and his informal side. As Majority Whip in Parliament and a vocal political figure, Osoro regularly features in discussions on national issues, though this lighter moment drew attention for its adventurous flair rather than political content.
At 38 years old, Osoro’s journey from humble beginnings to a prominent political role has been widely discussed, and this latest stunt added a relatable and humanizing chapter to his public profile.
