Our counsellors recently participated in a transformative workshop on Mental Well-being in Universities in Kenya, held at Pwani University from March 5th to 7th, 2025. The event brought together university counsellors and psychologists from across the country to discuss strategies for enhancing mental health support in higher education institutions.

From March 4th to 8th, Kabarak University proudly participated in the Eldoret National Agricultural Society of Kenya (ASK) Show, a premier event celebrating innovation, education, and agriculture. Represented by a dynamic team from the Marketing Department, led by Mr. Andrew Marangu, Manager of Corporate Communication & Marketing, the university showcased its diverse academic offerings and commitment to excellence.

In the heart of Nakuru, where rivalries run as deep as the Rift Valley, Kabarak University Team B scripted a thrilling chapter in the age-old football saga against our neighbors, Egerton University. A game that had everything—flair, fire, and a fair share of drama—saw Kabarak emerge victorious with a hard-fought 1-0 win, bagging the bragging rights and three golden points.

For decades, the feminist movement has been a cornerstone in the fight for women’s rights, gender equality, and the dismantling of patriarchal systems.^[1]Feminism has challenged the notion that sex and gender should dictate one’s position in society, advocating for the eradication of gender-based violence and systemic discrimination.^[2] However, the emergence of the gender movement, which champions transgender and non-binary identities, has sparked a complex debate. While the gender movement seeks to expand inclusivity beyond the binary of male and female,non-binary individuals continue to face systemic challenges, including legal erasure, social discrimination, and lack of representation. Many struggle with internalized stigma and exclusion from  cisgender people. ^[3]

It was a high-stakes scrum of gratitude and camaraderie as the KCB Group Rugby Team, led by Vice-Chairperson Mr. Mwita Brian, made a courtesy call to Kabarak University. Welcomed at the university boardroom by Prof. Gladys Kiptiony, Director of DELT (Excellence in Learning and Teaching), representing Vice-Chancellor Prof. Henry Kiplangat, the delegation was joined by Dr. Justine Oguta, Kabarak Rugby Chairman, and Coach Leo Ngetich. The atmosphere was charged with respect and appreciation, much like a last-minute conversion kick under floodlights.

In a showdown that had the crowd gripping their seats tighter than exam-week tension, Kabarak FC, under the astute guidance of Coach Dr. Justine Oguta, proved that their home turf is sacred ground. Facing a fiery Chemogoch side, the boys in red and white refused to be humbled on familiar soil, sealing a pulsating 2-1 victory that sent waves of jubilation across the stands.
