"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, now that you have said that, you have taken the words out of my mouth. May I emphasise that although the issue may appear to be about a particular principal having an office and working at Masinde Muliro University of Science and Technology and South Africa, that is serious at the lower levels. I have been in accreditation committees and I found that the professors and lecturers are on Monday at the University of Nairobi, Tuesday at Egerton University, Wednesday at Moi University, Thursday at Karatina University and by the weekend, they are back to Nairobi. This is because of the shortage of professors and lecturers. Many of them are on a circuit. This affects the quality of teaching in the universities. As we look at the Vice Chancellor’s position in South Africa, I hope the Ministry of Education and the Commission for University Education will also look at what is going on at the lower levels. Many faculties of law in the university have today fallen short of standards set out by the Council of Legal Education. There is a tussle going on between the professional bodies and the accrediting bodies in various professions."
