Working for Chamwada
“I used to work for a certain company as a guard which is where I met Alex Chamwada and shared my interest with him.
Though it took time because I had to constantly remind him what I wanted to do,” Bwabi said.
Chamwada, recognizing Isaya’s determination, took a bold step and provided him with the opportunity he had been yearning for.
Bwabi was enrolled at the Kenya Institute of Mass Communication (KIMC), although he was unsure whether Chamwada would be able to cover the hefty school fees.
