Bomet East MP Beatrice Kones has spoken out on her decision to retire from active politics after a ten-year stint.

Speaking after casting her vote at Bomet Municipal Hall in Bomet town, Kones said she choose to retire rather than waiting to be pushed out by electorates through the ballot. Her retirement from politics brings to an end the family's 34-year stint in politics.

Mrs Kones is currently serving her second and last term as a Member of Parliament after she trounced eight contestants among them her son, Kipngetich Kones, in the last general elections.
