Emmanuel Wangwe entered elective politics in 2013, when he successfully contested the Navakholo Constituency parliamentary seat in the first general election held under Kenya's 2010 Constitution.[1] His victory marked the beginning of his national legislative career.

During his first term (2013–2017), Wangwe served on parliamentary committees related to transport, public works, housing, urban development, and the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF).[2] His election was challenged in court, but the result was upheld.

In the 2017 general election, Wangwe was re-elected as Member of Parliament for Navakholo Constituency. During his second term, he was appointed Vice Chairperson of the Agriculture and Livestock Committee.[3]

In June 2020, he became the Majority Whip of the National Assembly, coordinating government legislative business and party voting strategy until 2022.[4]

Following the 2022 general election, Wangwe retained his seat and now serves in the 13th Parliament under the Orange Democratic Movement. In 2025, he was appointed Chairperson of the Public Investments Committee on Social Services, Administration and Agriculture, overseeing state agencies within the committee's mandate.[1]
