KUPPET MOURNS PROF. GEORGE OMORE MAGOHA
The KUPPET fraternity sends our condolences to the family, friends and relatives of the late Prof. George Omore Magoha who died early this evening. The union received the news of Prof. Magoha’s death with shock and disbelief.
Prof. Magoha’s contributions to Kenya’s educational development as a medical lecturer, university vice chancellor, national examinations administrator and cabinet secretary for education were unparalleled. In all these roles, he demonstrated a high level of discipline, integrity and leadership that changed our education for the better.
He taught us that positive transformation is possible, if we dedicate ourselves to the service of our country and humanity.
KUPPET worked very closely with Prof. Magoha in his efforts to transform the Kenya National Examinations Council and restore the integrity of our academic qualifications.
We also witnessed his stellar leadership in designing the post-COVID education recovery strategy and roll-out of the new Competency Based Curriculum while he served as our Cabinet Secretary for Education.
While the minister has physically departed from us, his ideals and rich legacy will forever live with us.
May his soul rest in peace.
Akelo M.T. Misori,
SECRETARY GENERAL
