A young Kenyan David Odhiambo is among 12 contestants who will battle it out on this year’s series of Young Apprentice in UK.
17 year old Odhiambo lives in Bedforshire and is currently studying for A Levels in Maths, Economics and Philosophy and the Extended Project Qualification
Odhiambo has already enjoyed a taste of power, having worked for his local council as Chair of “Young Voices West,” and he earns an income as a private tutor.
A community-minded individual, Odhiambo often helps out organising events and helping out in his local neighbourhood. He enjoys reading, debating and philosophising, and also professes to be a dab hand in the kitchen, which should stand him in good stead should the Young Apprentice intake face any culinary challenges.
‘I have a disease called megalomania; this is a condition that means I am highly obsessed with wealth, power and omnipotence,’ Odhiambo says.
Inspired by Barack Obama, David hopes that one day in the future children will be studying him in their history lessons.
