@Kivuva this also knocked the socks off my feet. Are they saying their graduates cannot put up a building? Or was the project funded by the Chinese?

They will develop very good skills, but all projects will still be given to Chinese.

University of Nairobi Produces very good graduates in Civil Engineering and Architects, but they gave China Wu Yi a contract of KSh2.4B to build a 22-storey complex.

The partnerships between For Profit and Institutions of higher learning can only improve our lot. This is definitely a move in the right direction. 

Kudos to JKUAT and Safaricom for this initiative.
