One thing that is yet to change after the onset of Covid-19 pandemic, is the outdated, ineffective, and irrelevant education systems in Kenya. Year on year, hordes of fresh graduates compete armed with four years of “education” and a “bachelor’s degree” to secure suitable jobs. Yet, the bulk of these graduates barely manage to secure jobs in their chosen fields, and settle for doing anything available.

Is it really their fault? Are they all just worthless? Or are there other underlying issues which we are just burying under the carpet, piling to erupt as the country’s next pandemic?
