IMHO, the best solution to this is: 1. For KICTANet to work with other civil society groups to create the expectation that the National Assembly will have a deliberative process around the approval of cabinet secretaries. This will give time for people to evaluate the candidate and respond to the nomination. This should happen now. 2. A committee of people from this group should be formed. This should happen now. 3. For cabinet positions were ICT is a major component of the job responsibility, the committee should evaluate the candidate and make a public determination of support, neutrality, or disapproval. That's my two cents at least, but I'm an outsider here and don't have any of the contacts or status to move something like this forward. -Adam https://twitter.com/varud https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamcnelson On Wed, Mar 13, 2013 at 3:34 PM, Sam Gichuru <gichuru@gmail.com> wrote:
Listers Had a brief discussion with Jessica of Mzalendo that led me to write this short blog post, but we have seen the kind of impact a Cabinet position can have if the right people, who are competent are selected for the right jobs,
again, I stand to be corrected, I am still young and I might be immature on how some of this processes are undertaken..
