Kahuho Primary School, Class of 2015, was not only epic but also dramatic. It was a class full of characters, in fact,we sometimes joked they must all have been born on a Monday, because only Mondays carry drama every single day.
Among them there was Benson Mwangi. Mwangi transfer from Mutarakwa primary to Kahuho .He was nicknamed as Wamoje because he ussually wear oversize shoes which sound mooje... ,also Pwagu was his other nickname which he was given by Kiswahili teacher Mr Kinyua , Mr kinyua refer him as Pwagu because his big eyes. He was white skin, tall, and handsome.He lack appetite for education, girls, and food. Mwangi , in particular, was big in body size. It was rumoured that he loved avocados so much, and we all feared him. He once slapped me for calling him Pwagu.
Mwangi loved my friend Catherine Wanjiku, and at one point or other Mwangi, pretend he don't love her but Catherine was ussually love Benson. They were such characters and made Kahuho primary School lively and unforgettable.
That same class had Peter Wainganjo, who used to be very dramatic at all. He had a strong appetite for food ,once Mr Duni buy us snacks he ran away all the way school compound later was catch by Kariuki ,Gakuru and Githinji outside the school on Ack Church Ground helding to home, also he was in gang that eat Githeri of mr Gititu on the kitchen. Once he Fell down while handing a plate of ungali but food didnt fell. Same Waiganjo the head of gang ,Sammy ,Wamoje and Kariuki pick my Ovacados live live and eat them.
John Githinji was in the same class. He wore very long shorts and an oversized sweater. The fellow never smiled throughout his eight years at Kahuho Primary School. Silently loved girls and act to be mature.
Then there was Sammy Mutero, another unforgettable character. He earned the name Oscar from his habit of begin Chelsea fun “He like Oscar Chelsea player,” especially when it came games time. He was a peaceful man but very angry....On Comment section
