Swarup Ranjan Mishra, a soft-spoken medical practitioner, was elected as the member of Parliament (MP) for Kesses Constituency, Uasin Gishu County, on August 8, 2017, becoming the Rift Valley’s first non-local to earn a seat
Mishra joined James Nyikal of Seme, Nyamira Deputy Governor James Ondochi, and Boni Khalwale of Nyamira as medical physicians who threw their hats into the political ring.
Kiprop, a Kesses legislator, is the creator of the Mediheal Group of Hospitals, which has locations in Kenya, Rwanda, and Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. It’s no secret that Mishra lives a flashy lifestyle, with a fleet of luxury automobiles, homes, high-end watches, and over 200 suits.
The congressman disclosed that he owned 18 phones in a television appearance. When questioned how he kept track of all of them, he responded it wasn’t as difficult as it appeared, comparing it to having multiple wives.
“I have 18 phones but only take eight with me.”
“Just like when someone marries ten women or has 16 children, they will always keep an eye on them,” the Kesses politician explained.
Mishra said he lived three lives: that of a politician, an intellectual, and a businessman. He did say, though, that he does not combine business and politics, calling the latter as humanitarian activity, which he demonstrates through his charities.

For example, in August 2018, he launched a program to provide free cows to every home in Kesses that lacked one. In January 2020, he also acquired 50 scholarships for his constituents to study in India.
Mishra moved to Kenya in 1994, which many people are unaware of. He was born in India in 1965 to a family of doctors, with his grandpa practicing traditional medicine and his father working as a pharmacist. Mishra decided to pursue a medical degree, specializing in Obstetrics and Gynecology, in order to follow in their footsteps.
