"content": "Through the international jobs office and the diaspora office, we campaigned single handedly, as a Ministry, without any support of any other arm of Government and got Justice Joyce Aluoch elected the first Kenyan judge to the International Criminal Court (ICC) at The Hague and she is now serving. Under the international jobs office and the diaspora office, single handedly, I have put Kenya sitting on the AU Commission on Corruption; elective and not appointive. In that same office, I have had a Kenyan called Githu Muigai elected the first Kenyan to sit in the African Court of Justice and Peopleâs Rights. That is the diaspora. We have continued to urge our missions, through writing, every time I travel I talk to them and have given them a firm assignment that their cardinal duty is to project the image of Kenya; defend the image of Kenya and further the interest of this country and its people. It is through this that we have Kenyans competing for jobs. I cannot mention them all. The Secretary-General of the African Postal Union, Mrs. Masaviru was engaged through my diaspora office that I created in the Ministry. Right now, there are three or four Kenyans we are fighting for, one to go to United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), one to go to Habitat and many other places."
