Of all the people running for state Representative this year, Richard Komi was probably the only one who listed ‘refugee camp survivor’ on his campaign literature.

Before arriving in Manchester, he spent over three years in a camp in Benin after fleeing his native Nigeria.

On Wednesday Komi- now a United States citizen- was sworn in for his first term as a state Representative.
