I will firmly establish his priestly house, and they will minister before my anointed one always" (1 Samuel 2:35, NIV).

A priest's residence serves as more than just a structure; it is intended as a place for personal renewal and can be seen as a form of "Domestic Church."

It is considered a private residence to allow clergy to focus on their mission and should be a space where the presence of Christ is honored. Believers are also described as "living stones" building up a spiritual house.

Today, I had the pleasure of joining the faithful at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Parish in Turbo. It was a spiritually uplifting moment as we gathered in prayer and fellowship.

I later participated in the special offertory dedicated towards the renovation of the Fathers’ residence (Father's House) — a noble cause that will greatly support the clergy in their mission of serving the community.

May God abundantly bless Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Parish, Turbo and all the faithful who continue to give generously for the growth of our church.

God bless Turbo.

Boda Boda serve as a vital, informal transportation mode for passengers and goods within Kenya and beyond.

They provide quick, flexible transport in cities and rural areas, often navigating heavy traffic and challenging environments.

The sector provides significant employment for youth, in majority. Many operators belong to groups or associations like the Boda Boda Safety Association of Kenya (BAK), which works on social welfare and, in some cases, security initiatives.

Yesterday, I had a brief stop at Kamagut Primary Boda Boda Stage here in Turbo Constituency and engaged with our hardworking youth and entrepreneurs.

I listened to their challenges and aspirations. The boda boda riders and small-scale traders form a critical part of our local economy. They deserve structured support, access to affordable credit, and sustainable opportunities to grow.

If elected as the next Member of Parliament for Turbo Constituency, my plan is to bring together micro and small enterprises into one strong SACCO. Through this, we will mobilize resources and establish a start-up industry hub that will empower them to earn a stable income and create employment for others.

Economic empowerment is the foundation of dignity and progress. Together, we can build a self-reliant and prosperous Turbo.
