KC Ohaebosim, a Nigerian-American from Wichita, Kansas, has been elected Lieutenant Governor of Kansas, making history as the first Nigerian-American to hold the position in the United States. Ohaebosim, a Democrat, will serve alongside Governor-elect Cindy Holscher, who narrowly defeated Republican Kansas Senate President Ty Masterson in the November 3 midterm elections. Ohaebosim, who has represented the 89th District in the Kansas House of Representatives since 2017, will join Holscher in 2027.
