[kictanet] Welcome!

[Odhiambo Washington]

@Yawe - a few points of correction!

1. Noone purges any details from the archives.
2. The issue of formal welcome - your idea of formal does matter though -
is questionable, unless you tell us how previous ones
    were done.
3. Dr. Ndemo was a PS while Dr. Matiang'i, though called a secretary, is a
notch above Ndemo. Matiang'i is a Minister. Those are
    two different birds which can't be fried in the same pan:-)
