On Sunday, a Kenyan science teacher, Peter Mokaya Tabichi, was crowned the best in the world after winning the 2019 Global Teacher Prize bagging Ksh100 million in a ceremony held in Dubai, UAE.

Elated students and teachers of Keriko Secondary School in Nakuru broke into song and dance on Wednesday upon the arrival of Peter Mokaya Tabichi, who won the 2019 Varkey Foundation Global Teacher Prize.

They waved signs with messages in his praise, blew whistles and lifted Mr Tabichi shoulder-high at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi, after he landed.

“There are several projects that I wish to undertake. I will ensure the school has access to clean water and build a well-equipped computer laboratory,” said the 36 year old mathematics and physics teacher.

Many on twitter have as well praised and congratulated hoping that politicians would learn true service from him.
