Currently, Mr. Katana is a senior person at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Mr. Michael Mubea has not served in the Ministry, but he holds a Master of Arts in International Relations. It places him in line with the duty that he is going to undertake in the mission that he is being sent to. view

• 6 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Ms. Diana Kiambuthi who holds Masters in International Relations also has 15 years’ experience. Therefore, in accordance with what the Committee established, she is fit to hold the position of an envoy. Together with Ms. Njambi Kinyungu who holds a Masters in Rural and Urban Planning, she is taking her position at the UN Habitat. That position will be quite crucial view
