"I decided to build the house because I wasn't comfortable with the house we were living in, dad struggled a lot to take care of us since we were little, my mom died when I was 5 years old, dad was the only family I knew while growing up. I have seen all his struggles and it was my prayer since I was little to do what I did," said Wilkister.
"Although he started his life in Voi, I could not afford to buy land and build the house in the coastal town so we decided to go back to Kisumu," she continued.

Wilkister saved the money for 2 years

According to the dedicated daughter, it took her two years to build him a house after saving for it.

"It is a two-bedroom house; it cost me a lot, and I used up every coin I had. I built the house alone since I am the breadwinner of the family," explained the chef.

"My daughter, you have earned me respect. I will not forget everything you have done for me. God bless you my daughter."
