When the Kenyan government promised free education for all, they never expected an 80-year-old veteran of the Mau Mau rebellion against the British to enroll in the first grade.
While parents and officials argue against wasting precious resources on an old man, this heartwarming true story promotes the value of education even as it revisits Kenya’s harsh history of colonialism.
