Hello

stay away from the central business district if you can, there are riots
here, and the tear gas tastes really bad, most of the trouble is here at
harambee avenue, the riot police have just moved towards the ministry of
planning but they are walking back now, theres a military truck spraying
people with water, EVERYONE is running back towards moi avenue, stones are
being thrown by some demonstrators, they are not sparing civilian vehicles
either, theres someone breaking windows


 there goes the phone booth, all booths!! the roads blocked,


some of the riot police have AKs, the others have shields and batons which
they are bashing together to scare people, it sounds abit like gun shots


 its been going on for about 15 minutes and its not really getting better


 I think the most of the media people have run off now, I don’t see any


 stay safe


 Connie

 Dear All,

 I believe it is in order for ICT stakeholders in Kenya to send
 congratulations
 to Dr. Shem Ochoudho on his appointment to the Rwanda's ICT authority.

 Former pipeline boss named Rwanda’s ICT boss
 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 By Alari Alare

 The Rwandan government has appointed former Kenya Pipeline Company Limited
 Managing Director Shem Ochuodho to head the country’s information and
 communication authority.

 Ochuodho is the new chief executive officer of the Rwanda Information
 Technology Authority (RITA) for a period of two years.

 Ochuodho, a former chairman of the Computer Society of Kenya, will now
 head
 the
 national body that is designed to develop Rwanda’s information and
 communications facilities.

 He holds a Philosopher’s Degree (PhD) in Engineering (software) from the
 University of York, England and a Masters in Electronic Engineering from
 the
 University of Nairobi.

 RITA runs as an independent body with linkages to IT divisions in
 government
 ministries as well as other ICT-related organisations in public and
 private

 sectors.

 The authority seeks to modernise Rwanda’s economy using information and
 communi! cation technology as an engine for accelerated growth.

 It has the responsibility of developing national ICT standards and
 guidelines.
