Koitaleel Samoei University’s History

The history of Koitaleel Samoei University College dates back to 2012/2014 when the idea to have a University situated in Nandi County named after the legendary leader Koitaleel Samoei was mooted.

A steering committee was constituted and a series of consultative meetings and workshops were held between the County Government of Nandi, the University of Nairobi, and the community to support the establishment of the University College in the County in line with the constitutional provisions.

The leaders from Nandi County requested His Excellency the fourth President of Kenya Uhuru Kenyatta to formally gazette the University College. On 12th June 2017, he graciously presided over with the then Deputy President Dr. William Samoei Ruto in the laying of the foundation stone at the proposed Main Campus at Nandi Hills.

The request was formalized by Legal Notice No. 117 of September 6, 2018, which established KSUC as a Constituent College of the University of Nairobi, and on 19th October 2018, the first University College Council was gazetted.

Named after the eponymous hero; Koitaleel Samoei

KSUC is named after the eponymous Nandi hero, Koitaleel Samoei who led an 11-year resistance against the railway construction by the British Colonialists. To end the resistance, a British Colonel, Richard Meinetzhagen, invited Koitaleel Samoei to negotiate a truce meeting after he led a rebellion against the colonial invasion of the Nandi.

However, it is reported that when Koitaleel Samoei stretched his hand with Meinertzhagen, he shot him dead at point-blank and his death ended the Nandi Resistance. Koitaleel has been immortalized as a national hero and a legendary leader in the Kalenjin Community and the society at large.

Location
The University College has established two Campuses in Nandi County; namely, Nandi Hills which is located 15 km from Kapsabet, and the Mosoriot Campus which is located along the busy Eldoret – Kapsabet highway approximately 27 km from Eldoret town and 23 km from Kapsabet town.

The highway is well-tarmacked for easy accessibility to the institution. The University College sits on a 50-acre piece of prime arable land that was formally occupied by Mosoriot Teachers Training College. The setting of the
University College in the area provides a serene environment making it conducive for scholarly and academic work geared towards strengthening intellectual exchange towards achieving its core mandate of teaching and learning.

The University College collaborates with the community that has a wealth of
renowned athletes in promoting its niche in Sports Science Management such as the legendary athlete Eliud Kipchoge among others.

The University College envisages being “The premier University of Sports
Management Science” as it strives “To produce quality graduates through quality education, training, research and consultancy for social and economic development”.

KSUC neighbors Mosoriot Teachers Training College, the Kenya Medical Training College, and Mosoriot Market with whom KSUC collaborates closely in various engagements. The ecosystem in Nandi County is
favorable with sufficient rain throughout the year. The cool wet climate, complimented by the rich volcanic soils makes the region an ideal area for tea, maize, and dairy farming.

MOSORIOT TEACHER TRAINING COLLEGE LOCATION

MOSORIOT TTC: Mosoriot TTC is a Public teacher training college located in Mosoriot town of Nandi county; within the Rift Valley Region of Kenya. 

MOSORIOT TEACHERS COLLEGE HISTORY

Mosoriot Teachers College was established in 1959 at the current Kapsabet Girls High School Compound. The founder of Mosoriot Teachers College was Africa Inland Mission (AIM), currently Africa Inland Church (AIC). Mosoriot Teachers College was brought under the protestant education oversight, Christian Churches Education Association (CCEA) from 1964. CCEA policy was ecumenical regulation of education in sister institutions, provision and custody of assets of protestant owned schools and colleges.

The college was re-located to its current site in 1960. The site had been reserved for grass for cattle during dry spells for the community by the Senior Chief Joel Kiptenai Malel in 1959. He was the Senior Chief of Kosirai Location. He had transferred his office to the Current site that houses the Catholic Church, St. Francis Primary School, and, St. Francis Girls Secondary School – Cheptarit.

The college was named after the then colonial District Commissioner (DC) of the Nandi by the name Hunter. The Hunters Tree College emanates from the zeal and passion of the DC in planting blue gum trees in the current site on the College and hence the name ‘Kap-Hunters’.

The founder and Principal of Mosoriot Teachers’ College was called J. Rogers (1960-1961). The name of the college was changed from Hunters Tree College to Mosoriot Teachers College probably to Africanize and indigenize it.‘Mosoriot’ among the Nandi community is the name of the species of tree plant of the family of climbers that grows near river banks. The climber was used by the community in fixing the handles of the traditional hoes.

The College Board of Governors then allocated the land on which Malel Primary School was constructed. The Chief of Mutwot location at that time, Mr. David Kemboi, spearheaded the establishment of Malel Primary School together with the then Principal (Mr. Gilbert Oriya).Malel Mosoriot Teachers’ College Primary School was started in 1987 as Cheptarit East Primary School. The school was intended to serve the college staff since other good schools were far off in Eldoret.

The college sat on a 92-acre piece of land until 2013 when the process of establishing of a University Campus, Koitalel Samoei University College (KSUC) was mooted. The college is now sitting on 41 acres of land: 10 acres of Lagoon land where the college sewage plant stands; and 31 acres of land to accommodate students’ dormitories, staff houses, college gate, Tuition, and administration block, library, all fields/playgrounds, and Malel Mosoriot Teachers’ College Primary School.

University Degree Requirement Sparks Mixed Reactions

Leave a comment

The requirement that aspirants for elective positions in both the national and  County Assemblies must be degree holders continue to elicit mixed reaction in the country.

In Kiambu, most people seem to be contended with the new requirement on grounds that leadership entails knowledgeability to articulate legislative duties and oversight.

Doctor Robert Oduori, a senior lecturer at Moi University says education system is meant for such purposes as to mold leaders. Quoting school mottoes such as “education is the key to success,” he stated that a country cannot succeed without enlightened leaders. Otherwise, what would be the reason to subject a whole nation and have illiterate leaders.

He added that with a degree, one is exposed to different environments and people therefore have knowledge on how to deal with different situations. Moreover, development cannot begin from the highest level, but should rather begin from the base, where the MPs and MCAs hold proper academic credentials.

Samuel Muana, a resident of Kiambu town said that degrees should be a qualification because the MCAs and MPs represent people and should have knowledge of what people need.

He however expressed his doubt about the authenticity of the degrees, stating that there is very little time for the aspirants to acquire degrees legally and many might end up forging them in the backstreet. He wishes that the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission would subject the degrees to verification through certified agencies prior to clearance to run.

Valentine Wanjiru, who is a graduate and a fruit vendor at the Kiambu market supports the new law to have MCAS and MPS hold degrees saying many youth were educated but getting wasted due to lack of employment opportunities.

The new law came to foece recently after it was shelved during the 2017 polls has been pending after aspirants who did not have degrees  requested for time to acquire the required academic qualification. Speaking during the launch of the IEBC annual voters Education Week on 14th June in Bomas of Kenya, the IEBC chairperson n Wafula Chebukati said that the law would take effect in the 2022 general elections.

Reopening of universities; Education ministry issues circular

Leave a comment

   The ministry of education has issued fresh guidelines on how universities shall be reopened following closure in March; to combat spread of covid 19. According to the latest guidelines, all universities are expected to resume operations in September this year. It is expected that by that time the rate of infections would have gone down.

  “The ministry of education in collaboration with other government agencies is working on the modalities of reopening all institutions of learning. Modelling projections by the ministry of health on when the peak of infections is projected to be in August/ September, and therefore, it is expected that fewer cases will be reported after September 2020.” reads a circular by the Principal Secretary for State Department for University Education Amb. Simon Nabukwesi and dated June 17, 2020.

  The PS has also directed universities to develop elaborate plans ahead of the reopening. In the plans, there should be measures to prevent spread of covid 19 transmissions. Top on the list of requirements is provision of clean running water and soap for hand washing and sanitizers for all students at all times.

  The universities should also ensure social distancing and that everybody should be compelled to wear masks.

   “Universities will ensure that all learners lecturers and non-teaching staff have masks. The universities may provide these at a subsidized rate to students and staff,” he adds.

   At all entry points to the universities, the ministry has directed that there be thermo guns for monitoring body temperature of all persons entering the the institutions.

Also read:

   Students and staff who may not be able to travel back to the universities should be accorded necessary support; including online learning for the students.

   “Universities are to ensure that contingency plans are provided for those students who might need assistance to get back to their institutions,” Nabukwesi directs.

   Further, universities shall now cease being used as isolation centres so as to sanitize/ fumigate them before operations resume.

   “Institutions whose facilities are still, currently, being used for isolation, quarantine or as treatment centres are supposed to liaise with ministry of health to cease any further admissions and to transfer the patients to MoH (Ministry of Health) facilities,” Says the PS.

   The institutions of higher learning are expected to have a crunch program to accommodate both the continuing students and first year year students.

   Education Cabinet Secretary George Magoha has been traversing the country to see preparedness of schools ahead of the September reopening date. Top in his mission is to find out if schools have adequate supply of clean water.

Bondo Teachers’ Training College (TTC): Courses, Location, Fees, Contacts

Leave a comment

BONDO TTC LOCATION

Bondo Teachers College is located at Nyakasumbi within Bondo town, Maranda division of Bondo Sub county , Siaya County of the Nyanza  Region; along Bondo – Usenge Road.

BONDO TTC HISTORY 

Bondo Teachers College was established in 1991. Upon its inception it was domiciled at Nyakasumbi within Bondo town, Maranda division of Bondo Sub county ,Siaya county. In that year it admitted its first lot of students in certificate course in primary teacher education (PTE), who eventually graduated as P1 in 1993. Following the need and expansion of University education in Kenya,Bondo Teachers College became a constituent of Maseno University just like several other institutions of Primary teachers training colleges in Kenya. Consequently in 2009,Jaramogi Oginga Odinga University of Science and Technology (JOOUST) took over the facility that was Bondo Teachers Training at Nyakasumbi to become a fully-fledged chartered University.

Proceeding from the above events, a new site for the Teachers training college was identified at Bar Kanyango in Usigu Division, Bondo sub County , Siaya county where the primary teacher college relocated to in 2010. The current Bondo Diploma Teachers Training College was therefore incepted in 2010, however it was still offering training in P1 certificate. Two years (2012) after inception, the first cohort of 202 graduands were released into the teaching force labor market with a P1 certificate. The above number grew steadily to 213(2013), 341(2014), 348(2015), 403(2016), a drop in 2017 to 317, 354(2018) respectively. With the need for education still growing in the country, the college made a step in meeting this demand and started offering diploma and certificate in early childhood development (ECDE).

In 2020 the college graduated a total of 251 P1 certificate graduands, 9 ECDE diploma graduands, 36 ECDE certificate graduands, plus 7 proficiency course teachers some of whom came back to undertake certificate in ECDE. It is worthy to note that this graduation took place in the backdrop of the advent of covid -19 that went on to paralyze activities worldwide. The advent of this pandemic nearly brought activities in the college to a standstill. Upon resumption of normalcy after the covid-19, the college * admitted teacher trainees who were P1 graduates but they came in for an upgrade program in Diploma in Primary Teacher education UDPTE.

Another lot came to upgrade to Diploma in Early Childhood Education UDECTE in 2021. The change in entry requirement points policy led a big drop in TTC applications leading to afew students joining college. This scenario changed only after the government rescinded the earlier directive on cutoff grade marks requirement for admission into TTC. Upon the lifting of the moratorium on qualification requirements, there was an upsurge in college admissions with Bondo admitting 607 students to undertake a diploma course in Primary Teacher Education. Another lot of 28 students are taking diploma in Early Childhood education.
