Early life and education [ edit ]
He comes from the village of Karare . In his early twenties, Lekuton left for America to study Government, Economics and History at St. Lawrence University in upstate New York . He taught at The Langley School in McLean, Virginia , before leaving for Harvard University where he earned a Master's degree in International Education policy at the Harvard Graduate School of Education .
Lekuton is a prolific writer and a gifted public speaker. His book Facing the Lion: Growing Up Maasai in the African Savanna was published by National Geographic .[2] [5]
Over the years, Lekuton has sought to improve the education standards among his nomadic community, believing that this is the surest way to upward social mobility. Through the Nomadic Kenyan Children Education Fund (www.nkcef.org) and the Boma Fund Inc, a number of Kenyan children have a decent shot at better life through education. For his hard work and tireless efforts, Lekuton was recognized by the Kenyan government – he is the youngest recipient of the presidential honor. In October 2015, Hon. Lekuton was recognized by the President of Kenya during the Mashujaa Day celebrations and awarded Chief of Burning Spear, First Class (CBS).
