A joint quarterly publication of UoN and ICS dated September 1, 2019, was also launched during the event held at ICS headquarters, Nairobi. "One of the components of the MOU we have signed is to have a governance journal that will have a pure review of governance articles,” said Mr Nyaega. "This is because we have not been able to have governance articles in the country and it’s time we stopped having international benchmarking and developed our own that works for this context,” he added.
