<div dir="ltr">As we proceed with this discussion allow me to remind us all of the provisions of Article 10 of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010, which provides as thus:</div>
<div dir="ltr">10. (1) The national values and principles of governance in this Article bind all State organs, State officers, public officers and all persons whenever any of them–</div>
<div dir="ltr">(a) applies or interprets this Constitution; <br>
(b) enacts, applies or interprets any law; or <br>
(c) makes or implements public policy decisions. </div>
<div dir="ltr">(2) The national values and principles of governance include–</div>
<div dir="ltr">(a) patriotism, national unity, sharing and devolution of power, the rule of law, democracy and participation of the people; <br>
(b) human dignity, equity, social justice, inclusiveness, equality, human rights, non-discrimination and protection of the marginalised; <br>
(c) good governance, integrity, transparency and accountability; and <br>
(d) sustainable development.</div>
<div dir="ltr">These principles are non-negotiable. Therefore, it is important that consultations are done bearing in mind the principles espoused above.</div>
<div dir="ltr">Hence, and i dare say, regardless of whether KICTANET is a registered or not, it still is a critical network of stakeholders that must be consulted on matters touching on ICT industry, just like all the other non-state actors.</div>
<div dir="ltr">I believe the CS (and his officers) are aware of these provisions and will ultimately do the right thing. Failure to which, he shall be in clear violation of the Katiba, consequences of which, we are all too well aware of.</div>
<div dir="ltr">Regards,</div>
<div dir="ltr">Victor</div>

Just to reiterate what I said about a certain Presidential candidate, for
democracy to be effective we must register as voters and then actually go out
and vote. <br>
<br>
Sitting at home with a valid voters card cannot then be justification to have
your opinion heard.<br>

Listers,<br>
<br>
I assume that the CS and other powers that be are reading these comments. I<br>
wish to urge them, for the sake of this industry which we all know is key to<br>
the development of this nation, to do what is right. The ICT Authority<br>
requires goodwill of industry players and the best of the best to propel<br>
this industry to great heights. This means having an open process of<br>
selection where the most suitable candidate will emerge amongst others. Some<br>
of those names being touted are indeed very capable but the CS would be<br>
doing them injustice if he simply handpicked anyone. Let he/she who is<br>
worthy of the job stand up and present himself/herself in a transparent<br>
competitive process. I believe a full enlightened board consisting of<br>
knowledgable and dedicated persons (not simply well connected ones please)<br>
should be in place before the CEO is picked. And if it is a different panel<br>
interviewing, it really must consist of persons well versed. We must break<br>
away from past practices where a CEO of a parastatal has no respect nor time<br>
for the board he/she reports to simply because of owing allegiance to an<br>
individual who appointed him/her. This is what ails organizations and in the<br>
end you find poor performance and a decline or collapse of an entire sector<br>
simply due to in-fighting and insubordination.<br>
I am keenly watching how this will transpire. I would like to believe the<br>
new government is serious about developing this industry and will therefore<br>
do the right thing.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>

Interesting to note that in this whole discussion no one seems to<br>
mention/consider that ICTA is an amalgamation of KICT Board, Department of<br>
e-Government and the Government Information Technology Services (GITS). If<br>
continuity is the focus, aren't the heads of any of the other<br>
agencies/departments also potential candidates?<br>
<br>
