"content": "On the other hand, there is no profession where you grow and become a director. I was the director of programmes for an international company for five years, but I am an agriculturalist. When I vacated that position, it was given to a social scientist and later to a lawyer. This means that there are no specific professions that can be developed to grow into directors. By the time people are being appointed as directors, background checks have been done, their efficiency has been known and their integrity has been questioned and verified very well. Therefore, anybody with that efficiency, integrity and experience can be a director depending on which business or institutions he is required to work for. Therefore, encompassing all directors under one institute and coming up with a specific qualification for directors in Kenya will restrict people who are already directors, those who are coming up with companies without any qualifications, and those who are doing very well in building this nation’s economy without the basic qualifications that we will put in place. This is not admissible and it should be dropped in totality."
