Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) examinations have just begun in Kenya, and a County MP has supported candidates in her area of jurisdiction by buying them lunch.

Nyandarua Women Representative Faith Gitau providing the food cements her commitment to serving the people and lives true to the mantra of Mami Mwega (Good Mother).

The candidates in Nyandarua County can concentrate on their papers without the worry about lunch.

Parents will also be less stressed knowing their children will have a meal available, as the examination period causes them (parents) jitters too.

Pheneus Mwaura said, “The free lunch is a nice gesture from the leader and a practical way of wishing the candidates success.”

Leaders across the country have wished the candidates success through infographic messages, success cards and buying stationery for the candidates.
