Eric took to social media to announce that The bridge which is now known as baby Kemunto bridge, is complete and is safe for residents including school children.
"Kemunto bridge is complete. This young girl has changed a whole community. She is a hero. This bridge is not only historical but also extremely symbolic. It symbolizes a people's resolve, it symbolizes the power in unity! We are bridging the gaps. The gaps between the poor and the wealthy must and can be minimized and diminished. We are bridging the gaps created by political and tribal divisions. Team sisi kwa sisi nothing is impossible!!! Together everything is achievable!!!"
