Dr. Ndemo,<br>
<br>
We thank you for your exemplary work in the Ministry of Information. Kenya<br>
has moved leaps and bounds in ICT under your leadership. We wish you well in<br>
your interview Thursday as you seek to engage your valuable talent in<br>
another area of government.<br>
<br>
Dr. Matingi, Welcome to the ICT fraternity. You have certainly been with us<br>
albeit quietly. The projects you have sponsored in this areas under your<br>
previous job are well known.<br>
<br>
We are confident that you will be successfully in the confirmation and look<br>
forward to work with you in this ministry.<br>
<br>
Kind regards<br>
Sammy Buruchara<br>

Dear Dr. Ndemo,<br>
<br>
I take this early opportunity to wish you all the best in your interview for<br>
the position of Principal Secretary coming up later this week. I very<br>
sincerely hope the Lord will guide you, bless you indeed and see you<br>
continue to succeed. Your service to our nation has been outstanding. Your<br>
performance at the Ministry of Information speaks for itself. I thank you in<br>
my private capacity as a Kenyan citizen and wish you well as a friend and<br>
former colleague at the University of Nairobi.<br>
<br>
I am hesitant to address any issues presumptively at this stage as I<br>
deliberately remain below the radar as expected and patiently await to go<br>
before the vetting committee in Parliament. I am sure that there will be<br>
plenty of opportunities to compare notes and share experiences. I look<br>
forward to learning more from you and others in the this sector and that<br>
together we can make our humble contribution in this part of the journey of<br>
life.<br>
<br>
Fred Matiangi<br>

<br>
Can someone explain the logic of the Chair of PSC barring the media from interviews of Principal Secretaries? Aren't they public servants who are supposed to be vetted publicly even with citizens giving their submissions?<br>
<br>
Judges, commissioners of various commissions were vetted publicly infront of "live" media cameras, why not PS' ? What are they shielding? The argument that interview questions will be known by others does not fly, the same argument would also have applied to judges, commissioners etc, but it did not. If you're good you're good and we'll see it (otherwise, you appear too "rehearsed" when you cram interview responses")<br>
<br>
Where's citizen participation which is enshrined in the constitution? I think these are the kind of issues that COFEK needs to take up, Mutoro?<br>

They are public servants and should go through a similar public vetting process.<br>
