Lydia Naneu Masikonte is a perfect chip of the old block taking over from his legendary father late Cabinet Minister William ole Ntimama, who was the spokesman of the Maasai community until his demise in September last year.

Ms Naneu, 52, is the only one among her siblings who has shown interest in taking over the political mantle of Ntimama and will vie for the Narok Women Representative on Chama Cha Mashinani Party ticket.
