Concord Girls High School in Eldoret, will this Friday, January 21, 2022, be hosting thanksgiving and rebranding of the School in memory of Edward and Taphrotha Limo.
The two had a passion for the education of the youth and served the Lord diligently during their lifetime.
Through thanksgiving and rebranding, the School is repositioning itself to offer futuristic courses to the Girls of Kenya and the world in the areas of Artificial Intelligence, Sports Science, Women’s Health, and Agriculture amongst other areas.
After rebranding, Concord Girls will be known as Edward Limo Educational Centre.
In cooperation with its partners: Bi0 9 Venture, Turn-pro Academy, Alliance Francaise, Start-Up Africa, and Kenya Centre of Academicians and Diverse Oriented Research (KCADOR), the center aims to achieve the greater vision of the Late Legend and Mentor to many, Agui Edward Limo.
Limo donated 24 acres of land in which the school is built.
Ambassador Emmy Kosgei, an International Gospel Artist, will be gracing the event.
Concord Girls High School was incorporated as a limited liability company in March 2015. It was registered with the Ministry of Education and began in January 2015 at Kao la Amani Bible College with 9 students and 7 teachers.
It later moved to the residence of Dr (Mrs.) Ruth and Amb Dr. Cheluget for about one year, before reallocating to the current magnificent campus.

The school, currently with 70 students, has grown in leaps and bounds since its inception and in 2018, its students sat for the first KCSE examination and attained a mean score of 4.4. In 2019 and 2021 the school attained a mean of 5.2 and 5.4 respectively.
“We are proud of this upward trajectory,” noted a statement from the school.
The school’s motto ‘Aspire beyond the stars’ has been the driving force in the realization of Agui Edward Limo’s dream.
Just wondered why the Mrs Limo’s name was excluded. The entire heritage of this couple is a joint effort of the two whose magnamity is unmatched. To donate land for schools, Christian broadcast media, hospital, sons in law and friends of all faiths and diverse backgrounds is no mean feat. Amb and Mrs Cheluget please find a way to include Mama’s name in the school!
