Earlier in the week, I met the "Ombudsman" and learnt about the Office of the Ombudsman which is also known as The Commission on Administrative Justice, located at West End Towers in Westlands, Nairobi. (Wewe ulikuwa unajua juu ya hii ofisi?π).
The Office renders a free service that helps Kenyans both in the public and private sector get their rights. It ensures compliance with the integrity requirements in the law by public officers. It also oversees the implementation of the Access to Information Act, 2016. This free service shoulders Kenyans from having to go to court and incur a lot of legal fees to settle some matters.
I am so proud of the achievements that Cmmr. Washington Sati, MBS, the Vice Chairperson of the Commission, has achieved thus far. As a member and frontliner for advocacy in the deaf community; he has scaled the heights of success and garnered expertise in gender, disability, governance and human rights with a specialisation in social, political and economic rights.
I loved getting to know of his pursuit of greatness through his educational and career journey; which was topped by my now favourite story of how he met and asked his wife outβΊοΈ.
