A village in Bomet county is set to throw a grand party for Dominic, a young cadet who recently graduated from the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) and his parents.
Dominic's parents beat all odds to attend his graduation, and their photo with the younger man captured the hearts and minds of Kenyans.
The photo went viral, with many people hailing the parents for making it to the passing out ceremony of their son despite not having the razz matas, usually associated with affluent families during graduations.
Although the passing out ended, things are just beginning in their Bomet backyard as a committee has been put in place to plan the grand bash for them.
