By Michelle Ndaga

Felix Koskei, Chief of Staff and Head of the Public Service, has announced the completion of his Master of Science degree in Zoology (Agricultural Entomology) from the University of Nairobi, marking yet another milestone in his academic journey.

Koskei, who previously graduated from the same institution with a Bachelor of Science degree in 1990 and an MBA in 2004, said balancing the demands of public service with academic pursuits required “discipline and persistence,” crediting the support of his family, friends, and colleagues for helping him reach this achievement.

Quoting Nelson Mandela’s famous words, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world,” Koskei congratulated his fellow graduates and encouraged them to use their knowledge to transform society.

He further revealed plans to commence PhD studies, saying he looks forward to the next chapter of his academic growth “by God’s grace.”
