FOKUSA INTERACTS WITH KENYA OLYMPIC TEAM

8/5/2015

  • As my parents were sitting watching the 5 o'clock news, they were surprised to here that our home town" Bakersfield" was hosting a Special Olympic team from Kenya in our local university CSUB. They immediately made a decision to go and meet them. It was late in the evening when they saw them and the sad news was that he could not treat them for nyama choma because it was their last day in Bakersfield. However, my dad, Face of Kenya USA manager Wacu Ndirangu and I, decided to meet them at UCLA where they were residing until the games are over. It was a wonderful experience to meet the athletes. They were humbled and ready to show their talents to the world. We talked a lot about Kenya, their trip to America and a little bit of compare and contrast between both countries. 
  • Kenya Special Olympics team won 22 gold medals, 2 Silver and 13 Bronze. 
  •  I want to thank the director Mr. John Makathimo and his team for letting us interact and take wonderful pictures. I would love to meet them during my visit to Kenya.

    When I heard about the FACE of Kenya USA pageant contest, I saw a perfect opportunity for me to give back to the country my parents and I love dearly. I've been to Kenya multiple times and I've always felt myself at home. I even attended Mt. Kenya Academy in Nyeri for one year. Just as our Kenyan anthem says and I quote," May we dwell i n unity, peace and liberty plenty be found with our borders" I always pray that we achieve and maintain Peace and Liberty and find ways and means to fight hunger in the country.
