What is the achievement you are proudest of?
The achievement that am proudest of is the ability to proceed to my secondary education. I never thought I would join form one since my parents were so poor that they were not able to pay my school fees. It is by the grace of God that I was able to join form one and this made me so happy. I am particularly grateful to my neighbours who organised an harambee for me and made sure that I continued with my studies. Once in a while I have fee problem but am proud that I am almost done with my secondary education.
What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
I am planning to use most of my transfers in educating myself. I am a young person and I still have the urge to study, this is therefore going to help me a lot in continuing with my tertiary education.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the morning when I wake up healthy and strong. It gives me hope of another great day ahead.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I have faced in my life is lack of enough funds to pay my school fees. I am always passionate about my studies but I usually get distracted when I am sent home for school fees. This has made my life so difficult in school but I am working very hard to pass my form four exams.
