Mrs. Wairimu Nyoike April 22, 1936 — April 20, 2017

The Board of Daystar Company Limited and the entire Daystar University fraternity send our sincere and heartfelt condolences and sympathies to Hon. Kimani Wa Nyoike anc the entire family of the late Mrs. Wairimu Nyoike. Mrs. Nyoike was a founding member of Daystar Company Limited which is the sponsor of Daystar University. Cumulatively, Mrs. Nyoike served the Daystar Company and Daystar University Governing Council for over 30 years, during which time she was nominated to serve on the Board of the Company as a director, and served for seven consecutive years.

Until her demise, Mrs. Nyoike was still an active member of the Daystar Company. Her genuine concern for the education sector in Kenya came out through her words of counsel and wisdom, always calling for the need for Daystar University to stand out as the ‘shining star’. Her resourcefulness saw her appointed to numerous committees and taskforces, the most recent being the Search Committee for Chairperson of the University Council and Chancellor of the University. Daughter of the late Evans Nduhiu and the late Grace Wamuyu and Daughter-in-law of the late Baranaba Nyoike and the late Elizabeth Mwara. Beloved wife of Hon. Kimani wa Nyoike; the loving Mother of Eng. Mwara and Eng. John Mwicha Mwatu (GM, KURA); Chuhi and Eva Naputuni Nyoike (Acorn Special Tutorials); Nduhiu Nyoike and Mercy Nduhiu; Wamuyu Manyara and Manyara Kamau. Grandmother to many.

The Thanksgiving service will be held on Thursday, April 27th, 2017 from 10:00 a.m. at PCEA St. Andrew’s Church, Nairobi.

…..until the day dawn and the daystar arise in your hearts. (2 Peter 1:19)
