Obiero has overtaken Waiganjo on this one! Even Deloitte could not smoke him out.

That is some indepth digging.
I wonder the circumstances that led to it ...some dubious people are going to be governors soon, to be in charge of billions and yet the provenance of their qualifications we can't fathom

I can bet you will not be hearing this story in one month's time. All governments have undercover operatives in neighboring countries. Ugandans in Kenya, Kenyans in Uganda, Tanzanians in Kenya, Kenyans in Tanzania etc. It is the way governments work. Sometimes a cover is blown as in this case but it is quietly sorted out at higher levels.

Actually if there is one field where academic qualifications mean nothing it is ICT. Things in ICT are ever evolving and what is more important is an ability to learn and adapt as opposed to a degree qualification.

One of the most brilliant programmers I have ever known was a guy who was unteachable after high school. He could only learn by teaching himself. There are guys at Safcom who knew him because they would contract him to complete complex projects. He now works outside the country where is very highly regarded.

Technical fields are the easiest to bamboozle your way past HR. His first job being at the U.N must have been what he used to appease HR managers.
