Other considerations

In September 2019 Onyango Kitche Magak,a drama festival and folklore specialist was appointed as the Acting Vice Chancellor of MMU. However, in January 2022, Mr. Kiche Magak was replaced by Prof. Joseph Chacha this was preceded by a successful court petition against Mr. Kiche Magak's PhD which he had obtained from Washington International University (WIU) that is not accredited in Kenya.

Mr. Kiche Magak had indicated that he was a specialist in human reproductive health, announced in Kenyan print media, that the university was in the process of launching the manufacture of re-usable sanitary towels. The towels would be distributed to girls from low income families, who otherwise could not afford them.[7]

Other collaborators in this female sanitary towels project include (a) Chris Kirubi, an industrialist and philanthropist (b) Jennifer Riria PhD, a businesswoman, banker and corporate executive, who serves as the CEO of Kenya Women Holding Group (now Echo Network Africa Limited) and (c) Bedi Investments Limited, a textiles and garments manufacturer. They have donated industrial machinery to the project.[7]
