Lakeshore to boardroom: Francis Okello’s journey

Francis Okello has just launched his autobiography, Concert Of Life – From the Lakeshore to the Boardroom, and what a story it is.

Like so many of our most prominent Kenyans, his life began in a village. But his ancestors were anything but simple. Okello traces his Luo lineage back several centuries, to South Sudan, with so many who preceded him being chiefs and in other significant positions. A tremendous amount of research has gone into spelling out the specifics of it all.
