ππππ§π₯ππ² ππ‘ππ©ππ¬π‘π’π§π ππ₯π ππ₯π¨π’ππ’π©ππ’π© was a Minister for Local Government in Moiβs government. He is arguably the heaviest human being ever in Kenya. He used to eat a whole goat alone in one sitting. The minister weighed over 170 kgs. He died in 1985 at the age of 61.
He once went to Uganda for a football game and Ugandans never believed their eyes, Ugandans in disbelief came out in large numbers to see Oleititip big neck.
Stanley Shapashina Oloitiptip was born in 1924 at Endoinyo Oontawua, Kajiado South in Southern part of Kenya. He was the son of Naseramporro and Olong'oyana Oloitiptip and was a member of the Ilaitayiok Maasai clan.
He is reported to have finished his education at Standard Four (Kenya African Preliminary Examination) at Narok Government School in 1941.
Oloitiptip was elected to Kenya's first parliament in 1963, representing Kajiado South. He was initially a member of the Kenya African Democratic Union (KADU) party ticket. He later joined the Kenya African National Union (KANU) after KADU dissolved, and he went ahead to serve in the Kenyan Parliament for 23 years. He held several cabinet positions, including Minister of Home Affairs, Local Government, Culture and Social Services, and Natural Resources.
He was one of the foremost Maasai leaders of his time, alongside John Keen, and he was known for being a vibrant politician who spoke out on Maasai land rights and the protection of water towers. Whereas Keen crusaded for inclusion of the Maasai in a modern political economy, while preserving the essence of being Maasai, Oloitiptip resisted modernity for the Maasai, but not for himself. He came through as a gifted calculating individual. He was the horse owner and rider. He appeared always concerned about himself and what he could get from the system and the horse.
He was a key figure in the 1976 movement of 98 members of parliament who opposed the constitutional amendment aimed at preventing the Vice-Presiden
