It is that time of the year when this column appreciates those that made a difference for Kenya and throw some barbs the direction of those who caused distress. Our first bouquet goes to the teaching profession, specifically lecturers in public universities.
I have recently gone back to school and have interacted intensely with this portion of a much-neglected profession. Firstly, the typical university lecturer belongs to the top percentile of our brightest and many have taken teaching as a service to country.
