    "Love is a father who carried his son in failure and cured him of failure"
    This is amazing

    "He educated all his sisters children and they were eternally ungrateful" 😂😂 This is a statement that sadly reverberates around many families. This man is a good story teller.

    Failure doesn't come suddenly.....repeated episodes and a father who never gave up! You came out a hero Okeyo! Hongera! You speak for many who will not freely confess to taking a step back. Oh my av had a good laugh at myself more than at you.

    A powerful story of unconditiinal love, told in a humorous and yet compeeling way. Thank you for celebrating your father . He must be smiling and very proud of the man you have grown to be. An apple does not fall far....

    Your Father did not only educate his Sisters Children, through what you did this day, he educated the World and it shall remain that way. I sure will also educate my Sons in the same way...eye opening. Thanks.

    Deep underneath this hilarious story,is a deep sadness of deep facts of what other students in other deep areas of Kenya are forced to go through.

    Powerful story and great man your dad and you are. That's the true Afrikan love, our parents may never say it to you but they'll show it 1M times better and more, sometimes you get to understand it later in life

    We celebrate your dad, but also we would like to hear more from people who acknowledge their mums for their hard hard work. Women have a harder job than men. Your dad supported u maybe by words or economical support. Am sure your mum did 5 times that job

    I think the speakers should rehearse before the speech....or a written commentary to fill in gaps.....we are left wondering what is division one, which highschool did he go? Did he make to college... Is he successful now? He said he visits his father once a month...is that in the grave? Engage is doing great stuff....but improvement is necessary...
