@Kivuva, @Mutoro
First time in my life that my name and a government appointment has appeared in the same sentence - even though in a proposed form :-)
Unfortunately, am not available this time around. But lobby and give me a call in 2018. Nitakua nimeiva :-). Translation:- I will be more than ready.
walu.

Walu for PS. Polish your CV and forward it to the PSC.
It would be great to have our own at the ministry. And while there,
don't forget Brian for PMG!
