Eldoret security guard graduates with First Class honours after years of sacrifice [Courtesy]
A student from Eldoret who spent four years guarding commercial premises on overnight shifts while attending university classes during the day has graduated with First Class Honours from Mount Kenya University.
Elvas Kipruto Tuwei attained top marks in his Bachelor of Education Science degree, specialising in Chemistry and Physics, overcoming a gruelling daily schedule that required balancing full-time employment with demanding academic coursework.
Tuwei worked overnight as a guard for Mocam Security, earning an essential income to cover his university tuition and daily living expenses at a time when financial options were limited.
Instead of scaling back his campus activities to ease his workload, Tuwei took on a central administrative role within student governance, serving as Secretary General of the Mount Kenya University Students Association.
