Opio David Rashidi
Writer of investigative reporting and local history
- 🇰🇪 Kikuyu, Kiambu, Kenya
- Kikuyu Press
- Since 1988

I've been writing since 1988. First as a hobby, then as a job and finally as the thing I couldn't stop doing.
I write best early in the morning with a pot of tea. I sing in a choir.
Hearing from old faces is the best part of my week.

Some of my pieces still make me wince. Some, I'm proud of.
What gifts mean to Opio: Any gift will help me print a small run of my next book.
