ASPIRE: BREAKING BARRIERS, BECOMING MORE
- Aspire by Elizabeth Jenipher Andati is an inspiring autobiographical journey that chronicles the life of Blessing, a young girl who rises from deep personal loss and poverty to discover faith, resilience, and purpose. The story, told with emotional depth and spiritual insight, captures Blessing’s transformation from a child surrounded by hardship into a woman of vision and strength. The book opens with the devastating loss of Blessing’s mother when she is only three years old, an event that fractures her once close-knit family. Her father, injured and unable to work, struggles to care for seven children, leading to painful separations as relatives take them in. Each move from her grandmother’s warm but disciplined home in Luanda to her aunt’s crowded iron-sheet room in Nairobi, tests her endurance but also teaches her invaluable lessons about love, survival, and God’s providence. Blessing’s early life is marked by poverty, loneliness, and rejection, yet she remains determined to pursue education and find meaning beyond her suffering. Her journey unfolds in stages: childhood displacement, teenage struggles, faith awakening, and self-discovery. Despite betrayal, heartbreak, and moments of despair, she consistently finds refuge in prayer and hope. Her story reveals how adversity shapes character and how divine purpose can emerge from pain. Each chapter includes Key Takeaways, Lessons from the Chapter, and Aspiration Action Steps, transforming Blessing’s personal testimony into a reflective guide for readers. These sections encourage introspection, gratitude, diligence, and faith-based perseverance. Through them, the author blends storytelling with mentorship, offering practical tools for emotional healing and personal growth. Thematically, Aspire explores faith, resilience, forgiveness, family, and destiny. It emphasizes that destiny is not determined by circumstances but by faith and choice. Blessing’s unwavering belief in God propels her forward even when life’s “lemons” seem too bitter to handle. The recurring motif of planting, sowing seeds of effort, faith, and patience, symbolizes the long process of transformation that ultimately yields a fruitful life. By its conclusion, Blessing’s journey stands as a testament to divine grace and human determination. Her story resonates with anyone who has faced hardship and wondered if a better tomorrow is possible. Aspire is not merely a memoir but a spiritual roadmap, reminding readers that with faith, courage, and persistence, they too can rise above their circumstances, break barriers, and become all they were created to be. In essence, Aspire is a moving celebration of endurance and divine purpose, a book that encourages readers to trust God’s timing, embrace growth through pain, and continually aspire for more.
ON MY OWN TERMS
Transformed by the Slum by Nelly Amiani
A book written through the lens of a girl born and bred in the Kibera slum. Through personal experiences, the writer attempts to bring out the life of a typical slum dweller and the challenges they have to endure in the quest for survival and emancipation.
It attempts to demystify prejudices and stereotypes attached to people from the slums and also justify why they behave the way they do. It ends with a call to action by not only giving hope but also challenging the reader that a perceived 'poor' background does not have to serve as a life imprisonment, but a stepping stone for purpose.

Criminal Made in Mbeere: The First Bo...
A Criminal Made in Mbeere: The First Born who Failed is a candid account of John Ngari's life in crime. Written with remorse while on death row, the author traces his journey from the beginnings that led to the many times he was imprisoned and the disastrous impact it had on his life. Often graphic, the book captures what typically goes wrong once a person has 'tasted' jail. For some, one could conclude that jail is a 'college' that hardens criminals.
Blessed with talent and a quick thinking mind, Ngari had many opportunities to tread and stay on the law-abiding path. More often than not, the temptation for crime won, leading to many avoidable offences: making and selling illicit liquor, breaking into businesses, plotting elimination of a lover's spouse and more!
How did this happen? What were the origins? What were the causes? Was is the family environment? Was it the community? Or rather the incarceration that turned a petty thief to a sophisticated criminal?... These are some of the questions for the reader.
The consequences for the author were devastating: loss of a parent in an inferno, the murder of a young brother, near-death experience following a combat with a potential victim of robbery, never-ending incarcerations, loss of property, and above all, facing a capital offence that would have resulted in execution.
How Ngari lived to tell this story is a matter of wonderment: was it providence or simply being lucky? … you, the reader, will judge.
A must read for criminologists, law enforcement, prison systems and wider society, this book offers rare insights into the mind of a criminal, how law enforcement works and life in prison, including thriving business in the prison system, love relationships (in and out of the prison system), practicalities of surviving incarcerations, and much more.

Making The Cut: The Autobiography of ...
"Indeed, it was a bullet! The patient remembered that he had been shot by colonial forces at the start of the MAU MAU war in 1952. He had survived the shot and literally forgot about it until the present moment, 36 years later, when I asked if he had ever been shot in the past. The patient was of course, after all, the freedom fighter par excellence, Waruhiu Itote, better known as 'General China.'"
--
In this unflinching memoir, Kenya’s first thoracic and cardiovascular surgeon, Prof. Peter Amollo Odhiambo, reflects on a life shaped by bold decisions, quiet sacrifices, and a relentless drive to serve.
As a young man, he left home on a scholarship to study in India, joining elite medical institutions at a time when few Africans had such access. Though he had every opportunity to remain abroad, he chose instead to return and help shape Kenya’s medical future. This decision would soon lead him to a pivotal moment early in his career, when he performed a delicate surgery to remove a colonial bullet from the chest of Mau Mau freedom fighter General China.
Prof. Odhiambo would go on to train generations of doctors at the University of Nairobi, where his influence can still be felt in hospitals across the country. But his impact reached far beyond the classroom or the theatre. In the 1990s and 2000s, Prof. Odhiambo became a national advocate for tobacco control, confronting powerful multinationals and helping draft legislation that still protects Kenyans from the deadly effects of secondhand smoke.
Told in his own words, 'Making the Cut' is more than a record of medical firsts. It is a personal and historical journey through post-independence Kenya, seen through the eyes of a man who has never stopped believing in excellence, justice, and the power of public service.
