“Dear freshmen and women,
Allow me to congratulate you for your performance in KCSE last year (2016). You are the few we selected based on your performance among the thousands who had chosen to be here. As you may be aware, this is not just any other University; for your information, we have only two Co-operative Universities in Africa, and this is one of them. We are known far and wide for the quality of graduates who come out of here for many years. I wish to reiterate and remind you right from the beginning that quality education is of essence. I am aware earlier in the day; you have interacted with various heads of sections and departments who gave you guidance on your stay here.” VC.
