The High Commissioner for Barbados, William MacDonald, paid Zetech University a courtesy call on Thursday 24th May.
In a widely anticipated address to students of International Relations and Diplomacy at the Thika Road Campus auditorium, the commissioner was welcomed by the Zetech Vice Chancellor Prof. Njenga Munene, DVC Prof. Alice Njuguna and the Dean School of Education, Arts and Social Sciences Prof. Owen Ngumi.
The talk was organized by Zetech University alumni and current attaché at the embassy of Barbados, Rosemary Oduor.
Expounding on the areas of collaboration between the two countries, the ambassador highlighted technology, agriculture, tourism and climate action as key to the positive bilateral relations.
He was consequently engaged in a lively question and answer session during which he elaborated on the benefits Zetech University gains from such a partnership, including attachment and job opportunities for students, visa free travel and student exchange programs with universities in Barbados.
