    "content": " Thank you very much for giving me this opportunity to talk about my professor. Professor comes from Siaya and fortunately, again, he comes from my ward, that is, Yala Township. I have known him for a long time and currently he is the chair of the board of Saint Mary’s Yala. The school has improved tremendously ever since he became the Chair. Every time we have Parents’ Day in that school, literally every parent turns up because they want to hear from him. They cherish what he tells them. He believes in education. So, even at the village level, Professor Magoha is highly respected so that none of his advice will just pass unheeded. People consult him. They seek his advice because he is a forthright person. He is a disciplinarian and a go-getter. He speaks from the bottom of his heart and he will never tell anybody a lie. Secondly, since he became the Chair of KNEC, we have seen transformation in the education system. We have seen transformation in the education system. There is no leakage of exams or cheating. Students today are very scared of cheating because of the discipline that has been enforced in the education sector. We have the right person for the job. There will be a lot of improvement now that he has become the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Education. I admire him a lot because even when he was the Chair of the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) and the current CS for Interior and Coordination of National Government, Dr. Matiang’i, was the CS for Education, the two worked very well. They delivered what we needed. When Madam Amina Mohammed took over, he was behind every success that she enjoyed. He is worth working with. He must be in the Ministry of Education. He will transform it into what we want. That goes for everybody else who will be in that position. This is the person whose career, experience, education and ability to perform should be admired and encouraged. This is the way to go. The President should continue to choose or nominate such individuals. I support the appointment of Prof. Magoha who is my village mate."
