A Great-Grandfather Starts School
Kenya's Kimani Nganga Maruge didn't have the opportunity to go to school when he was a child. But he's showing the world it's never too late to start learning. The 84-year hit the headlines earlier this year for being the oldest man in Kenya to start school. Kenya's government introduced free primary schooling in 2003, making it possible for Mr Maruge to attend. Two of his 30 grandchildren are at the same school but they are in more senior grades. This BBC report shares more about what he hopes to learn.
