Bio
Joe Githinji
I met Paul when he was trying to follow the issues of Lord Resistance Army in Western Equatorial State in South Sudan. I moved with him few places though the roomers were still there about this Rebel Group, Paul was full of courage. I failed to discover any kind of fear in him. He spent one night in my Parish at the Boarder of Central African Republic and the following day he tried to cross over the boarder to C.A.R using my old Blue Land Cruiser, and he made it. He is a Real Director as he doesn't direct his duties while he is only in the office, but he also tries to reach out even in most difficulty places like in my region. To reach in Source Yubu, Paul can explain as he has already made this experience. I recommend him as a good director who knows his duties and a courageous gentleman. keep up Paul.
