Geofrey Maina Isaboke, an 18-year-old Kenyan student, is struggling financially to accept a university scholarship to study Medicine and Surgery at the University of Nairobi.

Despite sitting for the 2022 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) at St. Joseph’s School Rapogi, he scored an A of 83 points.

Isaboke has applied for the government scholarship under the new university funding model but is unsure if it will cover his entire education.

He has also written an email to the Office of the President asking for financial assistance.

His mother, Jackline Maina, has been receiving financial aid from well-wishers throughout his education, but has been unable to raise the fee balance of Sh70,000 due to their daily wage.

Any financial support can be sent to Isaboke’s mother via Mpesa number: 0712695260.
