Mrs Lukwo lost her husband, the late James Lukwo, who served as a county Counsellor in West Pokot County in the 1970s and 1980s.
He also served as the Kalenjin Chairman of the Council of Elders in the 1990s.
He is credited with valuing education, as his son, Anthony Lukwo, studied in India, his daughter, Alice Lukwo, worked in MTRH in Eldoret City, Lea Lukwo, a former teacher at Chewoyet Boys National School, studied abroad and currently works there, and Damaris Lukwo is a lawyer in Nairobi.
