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.
