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.
