         This businessman in the picture above goes by the name of Moses Gichangi. He was recently elected to serve on the county assembly as a politician. What makes him special is that while being a politician he still never gave up his day of cleaning toilets, and shoe shining. He says he never gave up his old job because he wanted to remain a role model to the young men that he was mentoring. Before becoming a politician he picked 10 youngsters and they came together and formed a environmental group. He chose to work the 6 am shift and even though that consist of him cleaning off vomit from the previous nights drunks, he still manages to come to work everyday. He must work the mornings because the county assembly meets in the afternoons.
