Kenneth Makelo Lusaka (born 18 September 1963) is the current governor of Bungoma County. Previously, he served as the speaker of Senate [2017 -2022] and was the 1st Governor of Bungoma County in Kenya, a term he served between 4 March 2013 to 8 August 2017 where he was defeated by Wycliffe Wafula Wangamati in the 2017 General Elections. As the 2022 General Election approached, Lusaka left Jubilee and returned to Ford Kenya, a party under the umbrella of the Kenya Kwanza Alliance.
Running on a Ford Kenya ticket, Lusaka contested for the Bungoma gubernatorial seat once again in August 2022 and successfully reclaimed the position by defeating incumbent Wycliffe Wangamati.
