Hi,
I have heard of the Coffee Board, Sugar Board and many others and I am quite clear on their objectives and mandate but the ICT Board is an amorphous creature that keeps changing in shape and form every time I interact with it.
As was once said about the immediate past president and his private secretary "where does Moi end and Kulei begin" the same needs to be asked on where does GIT/e-gov end and KICT Board begin.
They build perimeter walls, recruit consultants, train on general entrepreneurship, procure software, manage projects for ministry, source land & many others. Is this a coordinating body, a policy maker or a "nyapara"?
As Walu said their seems to be a conflict of interests which is causing more confusion than clarity, can we please get a clear picture
of this animal before it devours us all.
Regards

Even in 'coded messages' that Jesus gave, He would later explain to His disciples and other interested parties.
On another level, I think the link provided by Walu gives an insight on what ICT Board is all about. Methinks we should get to Bw. Kukubo to further explain to us on ICT Board is exactly!!!
walu.
nb: its a coded message but am sure it is quite clear to those who must take action to interven.

Walu,
Could you please "interpret", I think we lost you
somewhere along the way.... It seems some kind of a "mishmash"
Harry
Yawe,
Google brought me the official answer @
http://www.ict.go.ke/index.php/theboard/our-mandate-a-objectives
But
I could add my own "unofficial" perspective/personal opinion which is that
the ICT Board could be the Ministry of Information
implementing agent for ICT Strategies/Projects/Activities. This could have
been occasioned by the e-Government Secretariate and GITS (Government Info
Technology Services) cold-war and power games that may have compromised on
each others ability to deliver on technology enabled services for
Government.
walu.

Man is a gregarious animal and enjoys agreement as cows will graze all the same way to the side of a hill!
AND
It is better to die in dignity than in the ignomity of ambiguous generosity!
