I joined Moi University Main Campus in 1989, after leaving the National Youth Service (NYS), which was a mandatory requirement back then for anybody who got admission to campus. Being in university was completely a new and thrilling experience for me, considering that I came from a poor background in North Eastern Kenya.
It was a sort of culture shock at first having come from a conservative Muslim community, but I quickly caught up with life at the university which is located in Kesses area, in Uasin Gishu County. We were the first students to put up at Ngeria Hostels, which I now understand hosts engineering students.
