| Embu County Governor waves to the congregation |
As it has been said, '...the stone that the builders refused shall become the chief head cornerstone...', so has it been with the Akorino community hitherto, as far as politics is concerned. The Akorino is a community of African Christians whose believes and practices are based on the principle of nonviolence. They are a simple but highly spiritual people who have however been kind of excluded as voters, especially in the larger Mt. Kenya region.
To the surprise of many, Embu County Governor Martin Wambora, on the first Sunday of October 2016 had the humility to join a congregation of all Akorino churches in Embu at Kangaru primary school, to commit the county to God through prayers.
Accompanied by first Lady Theressia Wambora and Deputy Governor Dorothy Nditi among other leaders, Wambora donated Ksh 200,000 to support them in construction of a Secondary school.
He also promised that his government will donate five acres of land for the construction of the institution. While emphasizing on the need to promote peace and cohesion especially now that political temperatures are rising, Governor Wambora urged the believers to continually pray for Embu County leaders for the sake of the County's unity and development.
