On January 8 2022, the Egerton community worldwide paused for two hours to pay tribute and remember in prayers the late Mahedi (Medi) Gilani. Mr. Gilani passed away on Saturday January 1, 2022, and was laid to rest in Nairobi.

The Egerton University Alumni Association (EUAA), at it's meeting held on 2nd October 2021 at Milele Resort in Nakuru, appointed Mr. Moses Kiogora to be the Association's Brand Ambassador. Mr. Kiogora graduated from Egerton University with a Diploma in Animal Health in December 1989. He went on to pursue a number of specialized training courses that culminated in the award of certificates by – among others – Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd of Israel (1995), EPIC (Enhanced Performance and Innovation Center) for an Innovative Selling Skills Course (2005), EPIC for an Innovative Debt Collection Skills Course (2005), and EPIC for a Dynamic Sales Presentation Skills Course (2007).

We wish to congratulate our Alumnus Major General Francis Omondi Ogolla on his promotion to the rank of Lieutenant General and his appointment as the Vice Chief of the Defense Forces of Kenya (VCDF).

Until his appointment by President Uhuru Kenyatta, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Kenya, Lt. General Ogolla was the Commander of the Kenya Air Force. He holds a Diploma in Military Science from Egerton University.

We wish him well in his new role.

Twenty-five needy students from Egerton University have benefited from bursaries from a group of Alumni who joined Egerton University in 1990. The Alumni group known as EU 90 Alma Mater Charity Fund have incorporated bursaries and mentorship activities in their programmes as a way of giving back to their former University.
