This is Hamdi Jimale from Eldas, Wajir County who scored 391 in KCPE but just like her two old siblings will likely not make it to high school because of school fees.
Any well wisher who can support her to continue her Education is welcomed.

I hear my neighbor (13 year old) girl was raped by a taxi driver and dropped by their house unconscious. Her family has covered it because of the shame and as usual the case was solved lowkey.
The victim is now depressed but walks around acting normal while the rapist is free

Youth are Key stakeholders in global goals.
I joined the 6th Youth in action forum themed โPeace, Freedom of Religion or Belief (FORB) & Economic Empowermentโ.
This initiative aims to holistically empower young people, tackling issues like peace, human security, and sustainable livelihoods in their communities.
We donโt need economy built from the bottom or 6k every month. We need to eradicate corruption and create opportunities for all Kenyans.Weโll then have everyone build the economy and make more than 6k a month.
We need women at all levels, including the top, to change the dynamic reshape the conversation to make sure womenโs voices are heard and heeded, not overlooked and ignored.
