Governor Kidero has been in the news
lately for all the wrong reasons. What you may or may not know is that
the governor Kidero has been not only been an A student but also a
performer in the corporate sector. What remains to be seen is whether
Kidero can replicate the same success he’s had in corporate sector in
his political career.
Born in Majengo- Nairobi, to a father who was a policeman, and a mother who was a homemaker, Dr. Evans Kidero grew up in a large extended family of 7 children, where he was the eldest.
Dr. Evans Kidero attended primary school in Nairobi, and completed secondary school at Mangu High school where he was the Head Boy.
Dr. Kidero went on to attend the University of Nairobi, where he graduated in 1983 with a Bachelor of Pharmacy degree and thereafter got his first job working as a pharmacist at Kenyatta National Hospital.
He went on to obtain a Masters of Business Administration in 1990 at United States International University in Kenya.
The highlights of this career include: 4 years at Warner Lambert, 12 years at SmithKline Beecham Healthcare International, 2 years at the helm of Nation Media Group, and (most recently) 10 years in the stewardship of Mumias Sugar Company. It is from Mumias that Dr. Kidero recently resigned to pursue a political career in Nairobi county governorship. From a 28-year career in the competitive corporate environment.
The big question is,will Kidero survive the tough political job or as rumor has it go on to become president in the near future.
Here is Kidero’s CV.
