Former President Uhuru Kenyatta on Friday arrived at Kabarak University ahead of the institution’s highly anticipated 21st Graduation Ceremony, where he is set to preside as the Chief Guest. The retired Head of State was accompanied by Hon. Dr. Gideon Moi, the Chancellor of Kabarak University, marking a moment of pride and symbolism for the faith-based institution founded by the late President Daniel arap Moi.
The arrival of President Kenyatta underscored the national significance of the event, which brings together students, faculty members, parents, alumni, and invited guests to celebrate academic achievement and leadership development. The former Head of State is expected to deliver a keynote address focusing on education, leadership, and the role of universities in shaping Kenya’s future workforce and ethical leadership.
This year’s graduation ceremony is particularly significant as it celebrates the achievements of 2,390 graduands drawn from various academic disciplines. The graduands have successfully completed undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, reflecting the university’s steady growth and commitment to academic excellence over the years.
Kabarak University has continued to position itself as a centre of excellence in higher education, with a strong emphasis on values, innovation, and leadership training. University officials noted that the presence of President Kenyatta as Chief Guest adds prestige to the ceremony and serves as inspiration to the graduating class as they transition into the next chapter of their professional and personal lives.
As the institution marks its 21st graduation, the ceremony stands as a milestone in Kabarak University’s journey, highlighting its contribution to national development through quality education and values-driven leadership.
