The narrative of a young successful Kenyan is to go to school, get good grades and secure a nice job. Elijah Njoroge went to school, got good grades but never got a job. In fact, he has never applied for one. He defied the narrative. He knew that he would never be employed.
So he went to school, got good grades and secured networks. He believes that networks are the lifeline of any successful business. Getting to interact with future architects, civil engineers and horticulturalists at Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT) was the key to success for the Biotechnology and Microbiology graduate.
