A Problem Solver For Africa

Professor Clyde Rivers, PhD


Dr. Francis Kihiko, Chief Executive Officer for Jitegemea Credit Company, is one of the key players in the transformation on the continent of Africa. He has created a micro-finance lending institution that is helping over 60,000 people.

Prof. Clyde Rivers had the privilege to visit Dr. Kihiko’s lending institutions and had this to say about his visit, “My visit to Jitegemea Credit Company changed me on the inside because I saw the answers for the transformation of the continent of Africa. I observed small loans being given that stirred up the recipients to create their own businesses. These people started with nothing and now some have 2 – 3 businesses that are supporting their families. Dr. Kihiko has a 94% rate of success. These are amazing numbers. This is an African businessman creating success for other Africans. This would be called African humanitarianism. That’s a new concept for the western world to hear. Men like Dr. Francis Kihiko will transform Africa.”

Organizations like this, that understand the culture and the heart of their people, know how to build their tomorrow. The future for Africa is bright.
