A Mother’s Sacrifice and Humble Beginnings

Kairo, whose birth name is Joseph Kairo Wambui and who was born in November 1996, has shared several stories about his simple upbringing in Amboseli, a neighborhood in Kawangware, Nairobi County.

In the past, while narrating his childhood stories, the businessman has shared several stories about his upbringing and how his mother ran a kiosk to help the family.

Kairo’s entrepreneurial spirit and drive have had a lasting impact on him.

Sources close to the successful businessman have said that the level of discipline and drive that the entrepreneur has today is a legacy of his late mother.

Education and Early Ambitions

After his primary education, Kairo joined Dagoretti High School between 2011 and 2012.

He then switched schools to Kahuho Uhuru High School, where he undertook his studies between 2012 and 2014.

This was a critical time for Kairo, which aided his personal and educational development.

However, his passion for cars was to shape his career path.

Kairo decided to enroll for driving classes after his high school education instead of relying on his educational qualifications.

His passion for cars was enormous, and this eventually translated into a business venture, which has grown into Kai & Karo Motors, with Kairo serving as the company’s CEO.

The company has become a household name in the motor industry.
