  • Clinton Mulwa is a former Kenya Defense Forces soldier who served at the force for six years. After training and finishing his induction course, he was first posted to Gilgil (Kenya Rifles) then deployed to Wajir (Elwak) and due to the impressive work done there he was enlisted to join the AMISOM fleet deployed to Somalia. He reflects on a rather challenging experience in Somalia with close calls with IEDs, engaging Al-Shabaab combatants that would affect his quality of life later on. After one year in Somalia, he came back did a Military police course and is from there that things started going wrong. From a demotion, to battling depression, separation with his wife and losing his ability to walk due to Guillain Barre Syndrome, life was tough. This story captures his path to restoration and regaining his ability to walk again.

    I woke up 1 day and left the military with nothing apart from my experience. I lost friends and so many people close to me saw me as a failure. I thank God i was never depressed (if so i dont know) though i struggled to resettle in the corporate world. By the grace of God all what i lost is being repaid in double. All the best Mulwa in your recovery journey and may God continue being there for you like He as been to me. Time is the best equalizer, give it time God is guiding your steps.🙏🙏🙏

    You cannot pray and perish. Clinton put your trust in the Lord and he will never forsake you and remember Job what he went through and also the life of Joseph in the book of Genesis. He was sold as a slave in Egypt, he was falsely accussed by Potiphar's wife, jailed and later on became a great man in Egypt until his own borthers came to beg for food from him. The story of Joseph has always been the reason why I chose to give my life to Jesus Christ and especially after looking at my family background. Joseph had no mother to take care of him but his father Jacob loved him because he was obedient. He also had a young brother Benjamin. He grew up in a very hostile environment but God kept talking to him in dreams. Clinton you are on your way to great things if you continue trusting in the Lord. May God restore whatever the enemy took from you just as he did to Job.
