Priority will be to offer adequate training for teachers with ICT skills as well as equipping computer laboratories in all primary and secondary schools.

NASA will eradicate poverty, uplift living standards of Kenyans and offer conducive environment for the business community.

The leaders will reach out to Kenyans in diaspora and ensure agreement and legislation with host countries to safeguard them.

NASA will promote East African integration as well as restoring the image of Kenya internationally.
