"I Borrowed My Neighbour's Tie on My First Day as Permanent Secretary" — Prof. Amb Bitange Ndemo "When the government changed in 2005, Mutua, who was the Government Spokesperson, called me and said, 'Bring your CV.' At the time, I was just a senior lecturer at the university, so I took my CV to him. Soon after, I saw my name on TV announcing that I had been appointed a Permanent Secretary. I had no idea what the role of a Permanent Secretary actually entailed. Back then, appointments did not require parliamentary vetting. The following morning, I borrowed a tie from my neighbour because I had never owned one, and I reported to Teleposta Towers. When I arrived, the staff asked, 'Who do you want to see?' I replied, 'Well, I've come because I think I'm the new Permanent Secretary.' They escorted me upstairs to the Senior Director's office. — Prof. Amb. Bitange Ndemo, PhD, CBS Ndemo, reflecting on his appointment as Permanent Secretary and the lessons from his years of public service.
