Universities as established in the 6th century were ment to be the apex of any educational system. They were to be producers of knowledge but not consumers of knowledge. In Kenya, each pioneer university was established with specific goals and objectives that when achieved, would be helpful to the country. However the expansion of university education to reduce wastage rate at form four has done ravage than good. Today, most universities have produced several incompetent graduates. Half baked.

Campus leadership has seemed to become very vital especially to the politicians, their tribesmen and to the University Administration. At least every campus administration has an influence in student elections so that the status quo in the Administration can be maintained. Besides that, the student leaders who risk all their resources and their lives during the campaigns always have a reason to smile when they get to power. First, they make sure that all the wealth they used for campaigns are reacquired. This is done by making proposals for projects which never take place eventually.
