(2) Explain the circumstances under which Mr. Brian Ouma, the acting Chief Operations Officer (COO) at the University, was recruited and subsequently promoted with the fake academic papers. (3) Explain why the said Mr. Ouma's contract as acting COO was renewed despite the finding by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission that the employee had initially secured employment using fake academic papers, yet the position does not exist in the University of Nairobi Charter and the Statutes, and the courts already declared illegal. (4) Provide reasons for the inordinate delay by the University Council to competitively recruit and substantively fill senior management positions in the University, including the positions of Vice-Chancellor, Deputy Vice-Chancellors, Head of Finance, Head of Procurement, Head of University Health Services, Head of Security and Safety, Head of Halls Management and Registrar Administration, among others.
