"We noticed him around 2 years ago in our usual work activities. He came out as sharp and articulate. Called him to the office and enquired about him. He told me he had scored C+ but was unable to proceed to College. We were willing to sponsor him for a Teaching Course but in the course of making it happen, he is now an MCA," Nyoro said.
The MP congratulated Tony adding that he was an inspiration to the young people and the boda boda fraternity.
A section of Kenyans was impressed by the move and commended Nyoro and the UDA party. Here are some of the reactions;
