He has worked with Oceanic Plc, nowEcobank. Reading and writing are two of his favourite passions.I HAVE A DREAMKeep holding on to hope,Though it seems all is lost.Hopelessness is neither bought nor sold,Neither is hope.I had no shoes.On bare feet I marched to school,Not among elites.I became a president.Twenty-seven years I served the terms,And my children grew to adultsWithout seeing my face…But I too became President.They thought I was a dummy,And judged my grades terribly.But my mind applauded them.I envisaged they needed Microsoft,And I willingly became their employer,Soon a billionaire.The son of a Kenyan immigrant,Whose hope was hopelessness,I went in pursuit of happiness…Now I stand tall among men,
