Kirinyaga County Assembly Speaker, Hon. Muteti Murimi, took a significant step in supporting the differently-abled by donating a wheelchair to Muriuki, a young man from Kariko, Mukure Ward. The donation took place on Sunday evening, with Hon. Thomas Mwangi Muriuki, MCA Mukure Ward, and Hon. Lydia Wambui also present.
Muriuki, who is under the care of his grandmother, received the wheelchair to improve his mobility and quality of life. During the event, Speaker Murimi emphasized the importance of providing equal opportunities for all, regardless of physical challenges. “Every child deserves equal opportunities, and disability should never limit one’s potential and ability,” said Murimi.
Beyond the donation, Speaker Murimi committed to fully supporting Muriuki’s welfare, announcing that he would adopt him as part of his extended family. This long-term pledge underscores the Speaker’s dedication to uplifting vulnerable members of his community.
“We are committed to ensuring individuals like Muriuki receive the support and care they need to live with dignity and independence,” Murimi stated. His act of generosity and compassion serves as a powerful example of community-driven leadership.
The event was a call to action for others to continue nurturing the spirit of giving. Speaker Murimi’s gesture has inspired hope within Kariko’s vibrant community, reminding everyone of the lasting impact that kindness and support can have on the lives of those in need.
