Leader Who Cares: Strong Teachers, Stronger Classrooms

"A well-nurtured teacher is an unstoppable force in shaping the nation."

Peter Wafula’s journey is more than a bid for KUPPET Nairobi County Chair—it’s a mission rooted in wellness, unity, and service.

Having served as the Athletics Championships Coordinator in Dagoretti and Chief Starter at the Nairobi Region Secondary School Sports Association, Mr. Wafula saw firsthand how easily teachers sacrifice their health in the line of duty. Instead of watching in silence, he stepped in—with action and heart.

He not only organized sports activities for teachers across Nairobi but also led wellness drives that reminded educators to care for themselves. One small yet powerful gesture? Distributing branded water bottles to teachers—not just as a gift, but as a call to hydration, health, and hope.

• “When teachers are strong in body and mind, their impact in the classroom multiplies. A healthy teacher is a great teacher.”

For Mr. Wafula, leadership is not just about policies—it’s about people. It’s about showing up, stepping in, and reminding every teacher that they matter. As he now offers himself to serve Nairobi’s teachers as KUPPET Chairman, his message is simple but profound:

•  “I see you. I value you. I will serve you.”
