I remain committed to advocating for its revival, ensuring it plays a key role in shaping the future of Kenya,” he said.
The MP expressed confidence that with the President’s commitment and the collaboration of all stakeholders, Moi University will once again become a beacon of excellence in higher education, contributing to the nation’s development.
