✒️ Gîtaû wa Kûngû
His name is Hon. Jamleck Kamau. He chairs Tana And Athi Rivers Development Authority(TARDA).
He's former Kigumo MP, former Nairobi Metropolitan Minister in the H.E. Mwai Kibaki government. He is a gracious husband and father. His humble and fatherly personality has made him dear to many from all walks of life.
I recall when I was doing my KCPE his is the only success card I received. He was Kigumo MP then. That came when I had almost become despondent from the bitterness of seeing all my classmates get numerous success cards stashed with money while I got none.
Even when I become toothless, when I will be walking supported by walking stick, "mûtirima" and my bald becomes a shining, JKIA on my head, the immense joy and the inspiration the card gave me will never lapse into oblivion.
I remember he supported a very needy family in my Karega village by helping them construct a good modern house.Then he sponsored their daughter in her education. She is now a gracious advocate of the High Court of Kenya.
During his tenure so many students credibly benefited from the CDF kitty and they are now great builders of the nation.
So many schools were renovated, classrooms built and new schools opened like Kigumo Girls High School.
So Many roads, bridges, factories, polytechnics, shopping centers, health centers; agricultural, health, economic growth and community projects can associate their birth, advancement and well being to the general.
Every village in Kigumo constituency and constituency in Nairobi county has a tale of his near benevolent leadership.
Well, every human has their own imperfections. This is not to fly balloons of praises but to appreciate the general coz he did his best to make the nation smile.
We miss his innovative, smart leadership. We want him back on the stewardship of the Murang'a people.
May God bless him in behemoth proportions.
