Kenyans online have heaped praise on Kibra MP Ken Okoth after he shared photos of his latest multi-million-shilling project.
Okoth, who is currently receiving cancer treatment in Europe, has shared photos of an almost complete modern school he is building in his constituency through CDF (Constituency Development Fund).
In a post on his Facebook page, the ODM MP has asked his followers to help him pick a suitable name for the new institution.
“What name should we call it officially? 1. The Kibra High School 2. Kibra Secondary School 3. Kibera High School 4. Kibera Secondary School,” he poses.
Some online users have questioned how an MP like Okoth is able to deliver such projects while majority of his colleagues in Parliament, who receive the same amount of CDF, have nothing to show in their constituencies.
The same name is amplified by the one Constituency that has won accolades all over by proper utilization of it’s CDF funds kitty and the rallying call #EducationFirst.
What better flagship than the bold Kibra High School to define Kibra Constituency.
Furthermore, the name ‘Kibera’ has so much negativities surrounding it that it is high time we completely did away with it.
Carol Wamuyu comments: ” If CDF money can do this.. Imagine what we can do if our taxes are not stolen. Kudos MP Okoth may God have mercy and heal you to continue being a dedicated servant to your constituents.”
George Mutitu notes: “If Ken at that short duration can do such magnificent work for his kibra people,why are others sleeping doing nothing for their people, God bless you Ken and have mercy on you,may He see your good work and remember you Sir.”
Dicky Mkanguliz says: “God’s servant you will see more schools built in your life time. Its well with you.”
The latest project comes a year after Mbagathi Girls High School was opened, having built it from scratch.
