I know a lie when I see it!!! I thought you are Corded,why expose our own?  I think that the guy is honest once in a while... Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God..

people see the big picture This guy's story is an inspiration and what he is doing kurudisha mkono is amazing. I know of many ex Stareheans who are not living up to the spirit Sample this 'PET DREAM OF EDUCATION'
“To realize my pet dream of education for the disadvantaged, I started the children of Kibra Foundation or ‘watoto wa Kibra’ while still in Europe in 2006. My rich connections came in handy and 10 needy top students from Kibra have benefitted from bursary scholarships every year since 2006. Through my connections, I have raised sh17 million per year for scholarships and school amenities in Kibra.
He says the foundation has built computer labs and secured computers for seven schools among them Olympic, his alma mater that has been supplied with 25 computers.
Kibra Academy has 20 computers from the foundation. Others are Ayany Primary School, PCEA Silanga High School, Shadrack Kimalel Primary School, Mashimoni, Lutheran Academy and Redrose school.
... “Nothing gives me greater satisfaction than seeing needy students enjoy the privileges that came my way in spite of my desperate background. 40 students are currently on full scholarships in national and provincial secondary schools.
The foundation has two students at Kenyatta University. Five girls educated through the foundation are working with Zawadi Foundation of Susan Mboya Kidero. Zawadi is preparing them for universities in the United States of America.
Among his dreams for Kibra are a polytechnic, at least two new high schools, one for girls and a Kibra business firm into which various corporates can have an input.
He expects to use sh24 million of the sh97 million Kibra CDF fund on bursaries and scholarships in what he terms: “investment on the youth”."😖😡KQ makes money for everyone except the shareholder 😏😏 " overheard in Wazua

Hehehe @Siringi, Don't swallow everything Ken is saying my friend. Ken has a foundation which was also his daily bread before he became MP. I know him personally, he is overstating what he has acheived, the quote below just but one them. Quote:Through my connections, I have raised sh17 million per year for scholarships and school amenities in Kibra.

@ McReggae, I also thought the numbers were too good to be true. How come he did not even attempt to join "The University", the fees factor should have come in later. Far from the truth.

This is just like those many stories you see in the papers where editors publish stories where sufferers are portrayed as millionaires!!!.....too overhyped!!! ..."Wewe ni mtu mdogo sana....na mwenye amekuandika pia ni mtu mdogo sana!".

I've just remembered you want to plunge into politics? Could it be he is the man you'd want to dislodge?
