This is whom @citizentvkenya invited to trash university education.

People need to preach water and drink it. Next time, get a TVET graduate.

Gichuru displayed his upper class sensibilities. On one hand he says learning should be for jobs so kids should go to TVET, but when it comes to his own kids, suddenly learning is about play and a "lifetime experience."

@citizentvkenya you're being hypocritical. #citizenweekend

And then Gichuru goes on about how universities have become too bureaucratic. But whose fault is that? BUSINESSES. That nonsense of work-ready graduates promoted by parasite sector has scared universities away from doing any innovative curriculum. #citizenweekend

The parasite sector is the one that is turning universities into real estate, charging universities for managerial programs like ISO 9whatever and for consultancies on bs like performance management. It's business hollowing out the universities and they dare preach at us.

And let me tell young Kenyans: when Sam Gichuru is telling you to train for "gig economy," you better remember what gig economy means.

KIBARUA. #citizenweekend

The issue isn't which institution one trains at. It is that the economy is being looted and decent, hardworking Kenyans can't enjoy the fruit of their labor. But the media is determined to turn education into the scapegoat.
