Naomi is 15 years old. When she was a young girl her parents got a divorce, so she does not know her father. After the divorce, the poor and illiterate mother went to stay with Naomi's grandparents. The grandfather died in 1999, so the elderly grandmother and unemployed mother have been struggling to feed, educate and provide for Naomi and her siblings. Naomi was brought to Agape Mercy Children's Center and sent to Gathanji Primary School. After graduating class eight she was admitted to Giachuki Secondary School where she is now enrolled. She is able to return to AMCC during holidays. When she is not partaking in athletics, she enjoys her favorite foods: chapati and beef stew. She has a vision of becoming a university lecturer after completing her PhD at an international university.
