Ezekiel Machogu, Cabinet Secretary for the Ministry of Education and Princess Zahra Aga Khan presided over the graduation of 159 students at Aga Khan University Nairobi. “2023 was an exceptional year in which AKU’s growth was evident through multiple initiatives. We launched undergraduate medical education in Nairobi and undergraduate nursing education in both Nairobi and Dar es Salaam to educate the healthcare leaders who are needed throughout East Africa,” said Princess Zahra. The graduates, more than 60 per cent of whom are women, were awarded degrees in nursing, medicine, education and journalism.
