The outspoken member of parliament for Kiharu Constituency Ndindi Nyoro has set a trailblazing record in implementing a post-COVID presidential directive by Uhuru Kenyatta. The president had urged members of Parliament to use the Constituency Development Fund( CDF) to expand the facilities in public schools in preparation for the return to normalcy for the education sector.
