I will petion against the bill if am allowed to operate a chemist with my bachelors degree in computer science. Get the correlation. The bill must go through
The Bill came through a backdoor and that”s where it belongs! ICT is very wide, actually it’s a fact that no one knows all. Programmers need System Analyst, Technicians will need a web designer, Typists need Network Administrators and so on. So, whoever came up with this Bill has a very shallow knowledge about it only a potbelly to drum!! Its archaic!!! It’s like an upcountry person who believes Nairobi is in paradise only to find the most polluted environment in the whole nation.
