"Digitizing Kenya?"
A bit bloated and presumptuous a title in a country where the so-called Department of E-Government (shame on them) for 3 years until now did not have have an email address (!) and referred all inquiries to a PO box (!).
Learn to stand on your hind legs first, before your talk about marathon running.
Thanks for that anonymous. Perhaps you would like to write an article about this very subject? Please do. I think it would be a great addition to the issue.
