Later, together with Nyeri Deputy Governor H.E. David Kinaniri, we officially kicked off the countdown for the incredible Truphena Muthoni β a young woman aged 22 years old from, Ihwagi, Mathira who continues to inspire us all.
β
βShe is once again making Nyeri County proud as she attempts to break her own world record: moving from 48 hours of tree-hugging to an ambitious 72 hours.
βTruphena first set the 48-hour record earlier this year.
β
βIn this challenge, she is advocating for:
β
β1. Indigenous trees
β2. Indigenous communities
β3. Inclusivity for People Living With Disabilities β including a planned three-hour blindfold to highlight the experience of those with visual impairments.
β
βShe hopes to show that tree-hugging is therapeutic. As mental health challenges continue to rise, reconnecting with nature reminds us who we are. We are part of nature, not separate from it.
β
βWe wish the confident and determined Truphena all the best as she takes on this remarkable challenge.
β
βShe has our full support β morally and in every other way β as she puts Nyeri on the global map.
β
βAll the best, Truphena Muthoni!
