He has organized several initiatives and among them is the communal cleaning (Umuganda) at Bwiza cell in Kacyiru.<\/p>\n<p>What is more, Mutua who\u2019s also the country director of PKF an auditing firm, urges those who are professionals to act like mentors especially to local students who have just finished their higher learning educations as there are few  local companies to nature their skills.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn my part as an accountant,  I intend to connect some Rwandans who are practicing accounting for instance to some of the Nairobi\u2019s renowned auditing firms and those in Rwanda  for them to gain experience ,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Contributing to the society is  not only forced task to Mutua  but also  a passion.  So far he has constructed a school in his village situated in Kenya\u2019s Mwala district close to Machakos town, in the same community he  took part in the construction of a water well which connects more than 200 households.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, he wants to replicate the same in Rwanda by constructing houses to orphans as well as sponsor students who were unable to continue with their education.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t work alone, that\u2019s why I\u2019m encouraging my fellow Kenyans to contribute to the great progress of this country Rwanda,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{{Finally, Kenyans in Rwanda under the association named All Kenyans in Rwanda have voted Boniface Mutua as their chairman, though at some point his candidature was derailed for a month by a few who allegedly wanted to cling to the executive posts.}} According to some voters who turned up at the Kenyan Embassy located in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"byline":[158],"hashtag":[],"class_list":["post-810","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","byline-b_igi_adm1n"],"bylines":[{"id":158,"name":"b_igi_adm1n","slug":"b_igi_adm1n","description":"","image":{"id":0,"url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&f=y&r=g","alt":"Default avatar","title":"Default avatar","caption":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","sizes":[]},"user_id":1}],"contributors":[{"id":158,"name":"b_igi_adm1n","slug":"b_igi_adm1n","description":"","image":{"id":0,"url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&f=y&r=g","alt":"Default avatar","title":"Default avatar","caption":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","sizes":[]},"user_id":1}],"featured_image":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/810","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=810"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/810\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=810"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=810"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=810"},{"taxonomy":"byline","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/byline?post=810"},{"taxonomy":"hashtag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hashtag?post=810"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
