Asali ya Wote The interesting genesis of his slogan “Asali ya Wote”. While working with women groups PC Gutuiyu donated beehives that were supposed to transform the lives of self-employed and small scale businesswomen. And interestingly a very old grandma probably in her 80’s shouted “PC Asali ya Wote “ the meeting tempo changed and the positive energy in the group was evident. We have carried on the slogan to continuously bring positive energy.

Don’t ever doubt whether your voice matters, or it has the power to create change. It does!
