Renewed hope for Kenyans who were battered by 2020

The economic and social upheavals that roiled the country in the past nine months impacted citizens in different ways. From the loss of dear ones to opportunities that were snatched away, it was a trying period. But 2021 offers the opportunity to give thanks that we are still alive and we can look forward to a better tomorrow

The year that many have described as horrendous, confusing, and full of anxiety has finally drawn to a close. It has been a season of losses: lives, jobs, hopes, and a part of the self. When people made plans for 2020, not even in their wildest imagination did they think a pandemic that started in far-off Wuhan would ripple across the globe and impact different aspects of their lives. As the New Year begins, they can only hope that it brings good tidings; that it will be a season of restoration and a time to hit the reset button.
