Abstract:
When Prof Esther Njoki Gicheru completed her Bachelor of Science degree in Agriculture at the University of Nairobi in 1976, she looked forward to pursuing a fulfilling career.
The fresh graduate was over the moon when she landed her first job at the Ministry of Agriculture shortly after her graduation. But there was a challenge. Her work station was Eldoret, something that did not work well for her as she was newly married and taking care of an infant.
