Franklin Okata did not have the sort of childhood that regular boys have. He had a medical condition that took the joy out of him well into adulthood. However, through all this, he has experienced something that is greater than pain- The love, patience and strength of family. This is his story at Engage 25.

I guess I’ll never understand human beings, hata such a touching story people still click a thumbs down. Dre, waaah, I expected to see you in a green kaunda 😃, you washed me here. Halafu that day Dr.Kitata of the UoN made us wait for you in ED2 theatre for hours long, you never showed up 😭😭. I’ve been reading you since primary school and I’ll continue to. Love is God and God is love, it’s an energy that if naturally radiated from deep within us to the next person,next creature, makes the world phenomenal. Let’s read more of you. Bless you so much.

A very captivating presentation from my kinsman. I actually laugh foolishly every Sunday when I read the mwalimu Andrew column. The man who scored a strong D- and worships in a church called THOAG (The Holiest Of All Ghosts) Tabernacle Assembly. Kudos omwami!

I had a room mate back in high school who had a bed wetting problem. I stuck by her thro' form 3 and 4 coz nobody else wanted to share a cubicle with her. I would even help her take out the matress. Unfortunately we have lost touch. But she was adorable.

"You don't need to be healed to be useful " . That right there is an iconic phrase.....bless you for sharing your life.. Psst:Mwalimu Andrew did not replace Whispers in my view there is continuity . It has not only brought a fresh sense of humour with an awesome twist they both would have had to be printed daily if Wahome M was there for your literary work is at par and beyond
