[kictanet] Fred Matiangi, Cabinet Secretary for ICT

Yawe

I'm not fighting on his behalf but on behalf of common courtesy and
professionalism.

You can make your point without such snide asides that actually only amount
to hot air. Majority of Kenyans know ICT ministry and strides made as
Ndemo's work. They don't know Yawe, hence the ludicrousness of that
statement.

I'm still trying to wrap myself around the thinking behind this cabinet but
hey Raychelle is as qualified as anyone else. What did you think of the
return of Ngilu and Balala?
