== History ==
The name ''Lari'' is derived from the Maa language in reference to the cold environment of the area. During the 19th century Lari was a reserve grazing ground for the Maa Community, with pasture available throughout the year. The Maasai would frequent the area, which is located at the foot of the Great Rift Valley to graze their cattle during the dry season.
Lari Constituency was created in 1966 after the first Kenyan Senate and House of representatives merged to form the National Assembly.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Constituencies Created for Former Senators )〕 The constituency was established as a special seat for the then Kiambu Senator J M Koinange.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=First Senate at Independence )〕 He was made the first Lari MP with no elections being held.
