Education Cabinet Secretary is a man of the moment, someone who has brought sanity to the once stinking Education sector. Unknown to many, the tough talking CS was once a teacher at a local school in Kisii,where he launched his career as a dedicated and hardworking Kenyan.
Prior to joining Non-Governmental Organizations as a consultant,Matiangi was an ordinary teacher at a school known as Menyenya.This is where, as a youth, he obtained critical skills and the discipline you are seeing now.Our source say the CS joined the school as a teacher late 1980s and left early 1990s.Upon resigning as a teacher, Dr. Fred Matiangi joined Egerton University as a lecturer and later the University of Nairobi.After a long stint at the universities, he joined the private sector as a consultant.
The education CS consulted for among others the World Bank, the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association, the Inter-Parliamentary Union and the United Nations Development Programme.He later joined the Centre for International Development, Rockefeller College of Public Affairs and Policy, the State University of New York as the Eastern Africa regional Representative. This is where the Jubilee administration sourced the CS from and appointed him a Cabinet Secretary.
Matiangi is currently the best Cabinet Secretary in Uhuru government.
