Former Ministry of Education Principal Secretary Professor Karega Mutahi passes on.
Karega’s death was confirmed on Sunday October 27, 2024 by former Kenyatta University Vice Chancellor Professor Olive Mugenda who mourned him as an effective public servant in the education sector.
“So sad to lose my good friend and former boss, Prof. Karega Mutahi, former PS MoE. He was the pragmatic PS who got the assignments right and got the work done,” she stated.
Professor Mugenda recalled Karega’s contribution during the construction of the Kenyatta University Hospital when he chaired the operationalization committee as a consultant.
“When the construction of the Kenyatta University Hospital was almost complete and we were preparing to operationalize it, Prof. Mutahi graciously accepted to chair (as a consultant) the operationalization committee that I appointed as the VC then,” she stated.
She noted that when the Kenyatta University Hospital was almost completed, Mutahi stepped up to chair the operationalization committee.
She added that the Karega report contributed greatly to what was used as a basis of running the KUTRRH hospital.
“When I was appointed the Chair of the Hospital Board. As PS MoE, Prof supported the Vice Chancellors during my time as VC-KU and his support and hard work contributed to our ability to post good performance and transform KU the way we did.”
She further outlined his contribution to the education sector and KUTRRH in the critical operationalization committee.
