In a speech read by the Deputy Governor, Kisumu Governor, Prof Nyong’o, congratulated the graduating class, noting that the county’s ceremony promotes the institutions, which in the past have lacked such exposure adding that the idea of holding a mass graduation ceremony makes a lot of economic, academic, and social sense.

“What we are witnessing today is a confirmation that the County Government of Kisumu has made major milestones in its mandate of promoting tertiary education. It is proof that devolution is working and is a success.” Said Governor.

The governor applauded the county Department of Education ICT and Human Capacity Development for the major milestones in its mandate of promoting tertiary education and the expansion of vocational training centers with three more to be established and approximately KSh 206 Million in capitation grants.
