Linah Jebii Kilimo born October 22, 1963 is a female Member of Parliament in Kenya s government. At the Kenyan general election, 2002 2002 general elections she was elected to represent Marakwet East Constituency on National Rainbow Coalition NARC ticket. Her political opponents opposed her running for office on the grounds that she had not been female circumcision circumcised and so was not fit to hold public office. She has however been instrumental in working with the Government and Non Governmental Organisations NGOs in working towards eradicating FGM. She has also been instrumental in bringing a lasting peace between the Pokot s and Marakwet s.

This peace was achieved only after the National Rainbow Coalition NARC Government was elected in December 2002, as a result the two communities now live in peace and harmony. Lina Kilimo has also been successful in developing the Marakwet East constituency, through providing funding to local school by way of books, more teachers, food programs and even clothing. She has worked with the Government to enhance access to the constituency by construction of an all weather road, with the intention to make the same a tarmac road in the sort term future. Linah Kilimo is married to an Engineer working with the Government and they have five children. At the Kenyan constitutional referendum, 2005 2005 Kenyan constitutional referendum , she supported its rejection. Along with number of other ministers, she was kicked out the government after the referendum, which failed to pass the proposed new constitution.
