KIANJA FESTIVAL MODEL OF THE WEEK.👑 (By Kym Wa M'muguna – CEO Kianja Festival and Entertainment)
🌟 Meet Elijah Munanu, a rising star and gifted model from the serene landscapes of Muriri in Tigania West, Meru County.✨
🎓 Currently pursuing ICT at Mukiria Technical Training Institute, Elijah is not only excelling academically but also shining brilliantly on the runway.🌠
👑 He proudly holds the titles Mr Mukiria Technical Training Institute and Mr Tigania, affirming his place among the region’s finest pageant ambassadors.💫
🌱 His passion for modeling began with simply admiring others on the runway—yet destiny had bigger plans.💯
🔥 In February this year, inspired and guided by his friend Êvånø Pálmêr, the reigning Mr Kianja Festival 2024–25 and Mr Heritage Meru, Elijah took his bold first step into the world of pageantry.🚀
🌟 He also draws inspiration from Mr T, the current Mr Face of Embu, who continues to shape his journey with excellence.✨
🏆 Within just one year, Elijah has achieved what many pursue for years:— Mr Mukiria Technical Training Institute (2025–26)— Mr Tigania – 1st Edition— 1st Runners-Up – Mr YCS TVETS.🎖️
🏛️ Becoming the face of Tigania remains Elijah’s proudest moment—not only for the honor it carries, but for the unforgettable opportunity it gave him to visit State House, a milestone he cherishes deeply.🌟
🌍 With a heart full of ambition, Elijah dreams of becoming a renowned pageant icon and fashion designer, using his titles, influence, and artistry to uplift people across Kenya. ✨
💡 His message to upcoming models is simple yet powerful: Trust the process—your breakthrough can happen faster than you imagine. I achieved three titles in one year because I didn’t give up.🔥
❤️ Elijah extends his heartfelt appreciation to everyone who has supported his journey, especially the Kianja Festival family, for walking with him through every transformative step.🙏
