Read Prof. George Magoha’s 91-Page CV

Professor George Albert Omore Magoha leaves behind a great legacy spanning a decades-long career in the public service.

The surgeon, 71, who died on Tuesday night after collapsing at his Nairobi home, had only recently joined Maseno University as a professor in the Department of School of Medicine.

This is after serving as Education Cabinet Secretary from March 2019 to October 2022 under former President Uhuru Kenyatta’s government.

Prof. Magoha had also previously served as Vice-Chancellor at the University of Nairobi and chairperson of Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) before joining the Cabinet.

During his vetting for the CS post in 2019, he hit the headlines after presenting a 91-page-CV, in which he summed himself up as “a top grade Professor of Urological and Transplant Surgery since 2000 at the University of Nairobi trained in Nigeria, Ghana, Ireland and United Kingdom.”

For a look into Prof. Magoha’s profile, from a list of the over 55 countries he had visited to his academic credentials, read the full 91-page document here.
