Marsabit School BOM Chair Offers Job To Graduate Whose Graduation Ceremony Wasn't Attended By Anyone Source: Facebook After a solitary graduation ceremony, Oyugi is now reaching new heights as he appeals to high schools for a teaching position in biology and chemistry. During the interview, Oyugi shared that Mr Mohamed Omar, claiming to be the Board of Management (BOM) chair of a school near the Ethiopian border, has offered to airlift him to the institution. In a gesture of goodwill, Omar has also sent Oyugi 1,000 Kenyan Shillings to alleviate immediate financial concerns.  Oyugi expressed his gratitude, saying, "Thanks very much, great journalist Madam Shiundu for helping me." The school, located in Marsabit County, close to the Ethiopian border, is now on the horizon for Oyugi in the upcoming term. Interested individuals are encouraged to contact the provided number for further details on the unique airlift arrangement. This development follows TUKO.co.ke's previous report on Oyugi's graduation, where no one attended the ceremony. Despite the absence of attendees, Oyugi remains undeterred, sharing details of his decade-long academic struggle. Oyugi's academic journey, which commenced in 2013, was marked by numerous challenges, including deferred academic years and exam difficulties. However, his unwavering determination prevailed, leading to his recent graduation. Reflecting on his graduation, Oyugi stated, "Nobody came to my graduation, but despite that challenge, I'll never be set back in any way." Acknowledging the support received, Oyugi expressed gratitude to Prof. Wanjiku Chiuri of Laikipia University, who covered his graduation fees after discovering his story on TUKO News. He also thanked Mr. Watulo for conducting the interview that brought his inspiring narrative to light. Now seeking a teaching position, Oyugi is actively reaching out to high schools with vacancies in biology and chemistry. Schools interested in offering him an opportunity to make a difference in students' lives can contact him directly at 0792008605. Looking beyond teaching, Oyugi envisions writing a book about his journey, aspiring for it to become a set book in Kenyan secondary schools. Additionally, he aims to vie for the position of teachers' representative in Kenya, emphasizing his commitment to advocating for teachers' rights.  Oyugi's graduation day may have lacked attendees, but his determination remains unshaken. Undeterred by challenges, he is poised to inspire others facing similar hurdles on his unique path.
