Born and raised in Kimana in Kajiado County, Simon Ndawasa Manja grew up aspiring to be a game ranger.
He worked hard in school and eventually landed a job at the Tsavo National Park. He would work with the African Safari Club Company in 2004 as a community game ranger in the Kimana sanctuary.
In April 2009 his star was dimmed. “I was attacked by buffalo while doing the normal game patrol. I was trampled several times and left for dead.”
Immobile and writhing in pain Manja was rushed to the hospital by colleagues.
