When sought for comment with regards to the Eldoret event, Alfred stated that it had come at a better time as he wanted more people from the vicinity to enrol for higher education abroad.

"I went to Australia as a young native man. I didn't know where to start from. Imagine a young man from the village exploring a developed country like Australia, where do you even begin from?" He quipped.

"I am grateful for ECU as it has played an integral role in ensuring that I am the man I am today. ECU'S education mode is holistic and focuses on growth of a student." Said Alfred.

The team is expected to land in the country on Monday 8th July.
