The award ceremony, held at the Atlantis Hotel in Dubai, was hosted by actor Hugh Jackman. Before the weekend, the farthest Tabichi had ever traveled was to Uganda, and he'd never been on an airplane before., raised him and his siblings alone after his mother died when he was 11, he said during his acceptance speech. He thanked his father for instilling Christian values in him, before inviting him to the stage, where he handed him the award.
"I can't believe it," he said. "I feel so happy to be among the best teachers in the world, being the best in the world." Tabichi's success "is the story of Africa" and hope, Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta said in a statement.
The 36-year-old, who was selected out of 10,000 applicants, plans to use his million-dollar prize to help feed the poor and improve the school, which has only one computer, inadequate internet access and no library or laboratory.
