Dr. Agnes Zani

From her childhood days, she recalls that any kind of injustice to anyone made her hair stand on end. At the university, Agnes occasionally acted as the chairperson of her department and started the Ford Foundation International Fellowships Alumni Programme, which she has been chairing since.

Education tops the former lecturer of University of Nairobi main agenda during her term of service.

The manmade disasters are different. These are like fires. The natural disasters are ... view
  • 7 May 2013 in Senate: About two per cent of the University of Nairobi student population was from those schools. So, you can imagine how many of these students will make it into the university with that sort of transition rate. So, the reasoning and the importance of this classification has to be put into place. Therefore, the basis of that marginalization is felt from the word “go”. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the coast region has consistently been second from the bottom in sending both boys and girls to the universities. I am looking at the figures of public universities rather than private universities because ... view
