Having been a student leader at the Kenyatta University, I want to imagine that this process needs to be guided so that it is not manipulated by the Vice-Chancellors. Most of the time, they would want to have their own puppets in this Board. A student representative needs to be qualified further. They also have their own association of students’ leaders. Maybe we can use that as an organ of election. We know very well that students’ elections can be acrimonious.

Sometimes when you have a contractual job and it comes to an end, The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
