A courageous young woman in Kenya has captured the admiration of many for fearlessly confronting Uasin Gishu senator Jackson Mandago over the controversial scholarships to Finland.

The initiative, which was introduced during Mandago's tenure as governor, has sparked outrage among parents and students who have yet to see the promised opportunities materialise.

In an effort to address the growing concerns and discontent, Governor Jonathan Bii convened a meeting to address the issue head-on.

Uasin Gishu lady confronts leaders

During this meeting, a young student took a stand that would resonate with Kenyans.

With unwavering courage, she directly addressed Senator Mandago, accusing him and other leaders of deception and lies.

"You are very mean with the truth, you keep lying, you smile at us, with a very smooth tongue and a very soft face that looks very innocent, but you keep lying and lying," she lamented as the other aggrieved students cheered.

"This is what a tired Kenyan looks and sounds like."

@Sysca_:

"I truly can't wait to see what the Gen Zs are gonna achieve. They say everything with their chest and I love that for them."

@mainawagatundu:

"Kenyans are tired of being stolen from."

@VayolensGeneral:

"This is the kind of boldness we should all embrace. It's no surprise that most politicians filter questions and the people attending such sessions."

@Amacheez:

"Things I love to see. We need to stop accommodating corrupt leaders once we meet them. P.S najua kama ni hustle utanyamaza that naelewa."

@TDi_Skoda:

"Vile inafaa."

Governor Bii links Mandago to scholarship scam

Previously, Bii linked the scheme to his predecessor, Mandago.

Speaking to journalists, the county chief said that when he assumed office in August 2022, he took an oath to protect the best interests of the people of Uasin Gishu.

"I received a petition from the parents to look into the overseas training programme that was ongoing. I initially addressed this matter internally. However, the preliminary report that I received indicated that this programme was managed by an independent trust known as Uasin Gishu Overseas Education Trust and not the county government," Bii explained.
