My name is Prof Wilfred Rottch Lesan, a retired Professor of Dental surgery, specialized in Restorative Dentistry. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree from the University of Nairobi, Kenya and a Masters degree from The University of London. I took up a teaching career at The University  of Nairobi as a junior lecturer in 1980 and rose to a professor in 1995. I was always enthusiastic about research and conducted and supervised students in their dissertations.

I am also a community and political leader. I participated at various levels of local and national level including in a position of a Senator in The Kenyan Parliament.

I have a lot of interest in developing people to initiate programs that enhance their overall wellbeing and enhance their entrepreneurial skills.

I am also an enthusiast in local and national food security and a participant in mobilization of skills towards nutritional wellbeing of the community. 

One challenge that I recognize  is the need to activate the enormous economic potential of Bomet county and this would  cascade to alleviating poverty and youth underemployment.
