A long daunting task, a little young man from Chematich village, Cherangani constituency, lived and raised in the sprawling British Scheme, Aruba village ,begun his journey at Kesogon, Sinyereri& St. Christopher's primary schools.
I wished my mum , guardian father and mother (uncle W. Boit , Loice  Boit) were here just to celebrate, Rested with ancestors. 
Fears and Tears , always on the way , lucky to have an uncle who raised me , a cousin who kept the mantle of education burning to India , fatherless, a fearful mother's my first teacher, never to call my mother a single mother, it shall be insulting her womb, I reserve the title, a mother raising two sons with an absentee father. Brave women with children, father's in absentia should be praised as brave mother's, calling them single mothers is a neo-generational term of disrespecting their efforts, putting in the category of stowaway in marriage.
The sun rose , the sun set beyond Gogababa hills , Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, India,  the pinnacle of the person in me , raised brave , courageous, hated and loved alike. The skies not the limit but the firm firmament that anchors my dream , my indefatigable dream begins , with Joshua Boit (Ph.D), my doctorate is not my sole effort but people's driven , my teachers, fellow journalism students, fellow journalism researcher's, the punes , the office messengers, the librarians , the last one is without lower part of her hands, disabled but searched books for me , she reminds me of how life would be without brave hardworking people like her, zoom the image below , My life , a journey with people, friends , real ones who made every stride with me , I landed in India with 271 Dollars from my coausin, Adam Boit the architect of my education journey, 100 Kenyan shillings is what mum gave me, just like a drop of water 💦 in a river of time , This title Dr. belongs to my mother, raised also by guardian father (uncle W. Boit ) and guardian mother L. Boit , the title just novel peace price is theirs. 
The sprawling hills of Cherangani is a testament of my yester years , without shoes till class 8 , the one segment sugar cane 1 shilling lunch a day , reading under the 🌙 moonlight, the torn shorts on my buttocks , still Alas the journey reconnected to time , skipping lunch till date is my way , I reconnect with my bucolic life , a rugged life yet heading to worlds unknown, the road of life stormy but in the raging wind , I sailed , meeting two presidents and two prime minister's, along the ways, retraced through courage and God's lead .
I never thought I would move from a grass thatched home to Kenya Airways flight ✈️ KQ202 in 2008, JKIA to Mumbai,  Qatar Airways flight Mumbai to Qatar in 2013 , KQ flight  Nairobi' in 2014 to India against all odds , 2017 Air India, Delhi to Mumbai, Mumbai to Aurangabad courtesy of president Uhuru Kenyatta , addressing the gathering in presence of the president was the pinnacle that changed my road of life , 2019 awarded flights Delhi to Coimbatore, Chennai to Ahmedabad, 2021 Aurangabad to New Delhi, Ahmedabad, Mombasa to Nairobi flights , 2022, Nairobi' , Ahmedabad, Mumbai, Aurangabad flights 
I pray and keep rowing to the shores of life. 
I took to the skies , not because I had money, because I had God the architect of my journey's through people who were strangers , through a cousin.
2023 , The journey has begun .....the story of the herdsboy continues...  January 30 , 2023 from Mr. Joshua Boit to Dr. Boit Joshua , the flight journey an award May 2023 8 days non-stop flight , Aurangabad to Hyderabad,Indigo flight , Hyderabad to Chennai City Indigo  flight , Chennai to Mumbai, Air India, Mumbai to Aurangabad Air India, ..

Eldoret City

The Daima Towers, Eldoret

The city to be , Eldoret town, The tallest building in the town, it towers like a giraffe in the great Rift Valley, the once a province now devolved into Counties.
 
The 'city' of the North Rift region , commercial capital of the region, where marathon runners arise to tackle the myriad games across the globe, 8 in 10 city marathon winners globally in any competition have stepped once in Eldoret and the adjacent town of Iten (i10) 
The living testimony of the city of the nilotic people, the Nandi tribal people being the majority, the Keiyo , the Kipsigis community have a share fare of the ever growing city .
The diaspora community construction is ripe with suburbs rising and new housing projects being seen rising like mushroom. A southern bypass road deconjests the city while the great Uganda road still chokes in traffic rush hours at sunrise and sunset. 
Notable improvements are seen as the old commercial city rises to number five in the country in 2023. 
Some notable skylines in Eldoret
