In Kenya, most of the elected mcas and MPS don’t hold colleges and varsities degrees but this has not relented them to be delegators in our societies.
Recently, independent electoral boundaries commission (IEBC) enforced laws that all mcas and MPs should hold a degree if they want to contest in 2022 elections.
In the past, the electoral act only required the president and the governors to possess a degree for them to be eligible to vie for their inspiring political stewardship stance.
At the moment the Elgeyo Marakwet senator Kipchumba Murkomen is drafting a bill to tweak the electoral act policy for all mcas and MPs to hold a varsities degrees for them to be acknowledged by IEBC to participate in any foreseeable election positions.
Do you think it is appropriate for the mcas and MPS to compulsory hold university degrees for them to be approved as political leaders.
Meanwhile, I concur with IEBC that it is essential for them to be exponentially knowledgeable but supposedly they should not be limited to take part in election positions. It is indeed exemplary that with better education they will be able to implement wise decisions as the current society that we have is sophisticated and having a premier education can assist them to solve issues promptly without so many inconveniences. And to conclude I also believe that if voters can decide and perceive them as their leaders then they should wholeheartedly be approved to address their mandate without constraints.
