It has a rich history and hosts one of Kenya’s public universities.
As you cruise the Nakuru-Mau Summit road, there is nothing much to steal a show as you approach it.
That is Njoro town.
Njoro town looks like any other upcountry town. It’s clumsy, dusty and sleepy.
Njoro is named from the Maa word, ol-corro meaning spring.
The Maa were the indigenous people in the area before the white settlers scrambled for the green fields for farming.
That is how Egerton University was born in the area.
To lovers, Njoro is a good town because of the famous Lord Egerton Castle where lovebirds enjoy nature and privacy as they vibe each other.
Police officers who have ever worked in Njoro, however, hate the town due to the punishment they received from one police impostor Joshua Karianeme Waiganjo.
Waiganjo was a tough fake cop who even transferred an OCS from the Njoro police station who tried block his ways.
How a fake cop can transfer a genuine OCS is the riddle Njoro lives with since that incident!
One cop narrated to this writer how he was punished by Waiganjo at the Njoro Farmers Inn.
“He called his friends and clande at Farmers Inn where they ate roasted mbuzi steaks and beer. He then summoned me and told me to pay as a disciplinary action over an issue I had with him,” the cop said.
That is Njoro for you!
