Feeling deeply honored to receive the Outstanding Leadership Award from the Kenya Publishers Association for my contributions to advancing Kenyan and African publishing. 🇰🇪📚

Heartfelt thanks to James Odhiambo and Agatha Karani for travelling all the way to Sharjah to personally present this award — your presence made this moment even more special.

It’s been a true pleasure working with you and the wider community throughout my years with the International Publishers Association. Here’s to continued collaboration and the bright future of African publishing! 🌍✨

Ukiona vyaelea, vimeundwa...
This Kiswahili proverb roughly translates to: if you see something glistening, someone must have spent countless hours and sleepless nights making it work.
It best captures the team that, year in, year out, works tirelessly, behind the scenes, to ensure that the Nairobi International Book Fair (NIBF) is a successful venture.
Putting up an event of NIBF's stature, the biggest book event south of the Sahara, is not a walk in the part.
That is precisely the reason why, we at Maisha Yetu, wish to give the hardworking guys at the Kenya Publishers Association, their flowers.
We acknowledge the efforts of KPA CEO, James Odhiambo, the Finance and Administration manager, Ann Atonga, and office executive Evans Odindo.
The entire book industry in Kenya owes you a debt of gratitude.
May God bless the work of your hands.
Join us in appreciating this hard working trio.
