Alex was my classmate in Mbaga Mixed Primary School where we both sat for KCPE in the year 2001.
I’m glad he’s took up celibacy and became a Roman Catholic priest. I pursued a different line of profession but all these are as per the will of God.
We met on a few occasions as high school students during the holidays but after completing high school education, we have not been privileged to meet.
