Happy Katiba Day!

Today, as we commemorate the promulgation of the Constitution of Kenya, we celebrate the rights and freedoms that shape our nation.

Article 43(1)(f) of the Constitution recognises education as a right for every person. As we work towards making this right more accessible, every opportunity to pursue higher education matters.
