Mumo
Mumo
Mumo came to Rafiki from an orphanage for babies in Nairobi. He was living there since February 5, 2005. His elderly grandparent took him there, overwhelmed and unable to provide food and clothing for him and six other children. Mumo and his younger brother, Kilonzi arrived at the Rafiki Village on August 7, 2006. They were greeted by their Rafiki Mother Faith and several cottage siblings. Mumo is a good student who is unafraid to express his opinions. He is academically above-average and excels in Math, Language Arts, and Science. He also enjoys playing lawn tennis. He has grown in taking instructions without talking back and does a better job in his cleaning duties.
