"content": "to 1992 and who passed on in the morning of Tuesday, 3rd November 2020 at the age of 94 years due to illness. The late Mwendwa was born on 23rd May 1926. He is one of Kenya’s first Directors of Education. He was posted to Nairobi as an education officer at Independence where he rose through the ranks to be the Chief Director of Education. I am sure those who did their exams during those days can remember his signature. During his tenure, he signed all Primary Education Certificates up to 1972. As the first Director of Education at the time of gaining Independence, he was faced with and addressed numerous racial segregation issues in the education system, inclusive of renaming of various schools in 1967. He changed the names of: Prince of Wells School to Nairobi School; Duke of York School, to Lenana School; Duke of Gloucestor School to Jamhuri High School; and Delamere Girls School to State House Road Girls High School"
