The university has graduated almost 30 South Sudanese nationals while about five active South Sudanese students are still in various faculties.<\/p>\n<p>In an inclusive interview with Juba Monitor after touching down at JIA yesterday, Prof Munene said South Sudan should use education as a medium of transformation from poverty to prosperity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe reason why I am here is to find the areas of cooperation between us and most South Sudanese because we think the potential of education in South Sudan is big considering that the country has just come out from a difficult situation [war situation],\u201d Prof. Munene said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf there is one area that this country needs to invest very heavily in is the issue of education. Any nation that has succeeded in being able to grow from poverty to a rich nation has used education as a medium of growth,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>He added that South Sudan is rich with resources but the only missing ingredient was the knowledge as such collaboration between two sisterly countries would help to tackle the issue from it roots.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRemember we have a historical tie in Kenya as being home to many South Sudanese and many have gone to schools and got the education to university level in Kenya. We would want to grow that because that is what we think is the best thing we can do in education and therefore give the ability of the people to use the resources that are available to them,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cZetechUniversity has a wide range of courses of a bachelor degree, master degree, short courses, diploma courses, and professional courses. One of the things we are capable of collaborating with are those that can have direct impacts on society,\u201d he stressed<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
