Thank you so much Limo, Please let us know if there are any meetings in Nairobi for friends and family? Regards, Brian On Mon, Feb 2, 2009 at 3:51 PM, Andrew Limo <andrew.limo@yahoo.com> wrote:
Dr Juma was passionate about his work. You couldn't draw a line between the job and and hobby . His was a rare commitment and for those of us who had a chance to work under him, it is difficult to imagine a fitting boss for the e-gov docket. I recall how he would get frustrated when you start explaining some delay, "I am not a civil servant", he would retort, "civil servantslike processes". Yet at the end of the day, Juma was more of a loving brother than a boss. He loved to help people do their best. The burial will be in Siaya on 14th Feb. There will be a Funeral Service on 14th. I will update you all with details soon, Andrew

Oh my!
This is truly shocking and quite untimely (from a selfish and human point of view). We have indeed lost a truly humble, dedicated and distinguished academician and civil servant.
May God rest his soul in eternal peace.
walu. nb: someone should keep us posted on funeral arrangements, church service, etc.

I have just been informed by reliable source of the unfortunate demise of Dr Juma Oketch. I believe we owe him him a hello send off as kictanet.
Pole sana to all

Folks,
There's a proposed law called "Freedom of Information" and a Bill has been prepared to that effect.
I understand this law will repeal archaic "Sirikali" (Official Secrets Act) and armed with it, you can demand information you need from government and it will be criminal for civil servants to deny you the information!
To help us understand the need for this law, its genesis, the implications, how it affects us and what its means for Civil Servants, government and companies, Chris Gitari and Peter Gitonga both of ICJ-Kenya <http://www.icj-kenya.org> have agreed to lead an FOI discussion here next week. They are the experts so they will co-moderate the session as lay me from over here deep down the trenches contributes by asking questions like you;)
It is proposed be a 5-day discussion from Monday 2nd February to Friday 6th as follows:
Day 1 (Mon) - DEFINING FREEDOM OF INFORMATION & THE PURPOSE OF A FOI BILL
Day 2 (Tue) - THE RIGHT TO INFORMATION & ACCESSING OF INFORMATION
Day 3 (Wed) - APPEALS, OFFENCES, PENALTIES & MISCELLANEOUS
Day 4 (Thur) - CASE STUDIES
Day 5 (Fri) - HOW TO PARTICIPATE IN THE FREEDOM OF CAMPAIGN
So prepare yourselves to find out about Freedom of Information (aka FOI) next week and we all ask them as many question as we can.
Feel free to invite others to subscribe to this list and to contribute to the conversation.
Regards,
Alex _______________________________________________ ke-internetusers mailing list ke-internetusers@bdix.net
