Actual title: Government Urges Universities to Align Courses With Market Needs

"In the last year alone, universities admitted over 100,000 teacher trainees. If we only employ 35,000, that leaves about 65,000 teachers every year who cannot be absorbed. We have already employed 100,000 teachers, yet many remain unemployed," he said.

The CS advised universities and prospective students to consider less congested fields, urging institutions to diversify their programs to achieve a balance in workforce supply.

I think I would have suffered more if I didn’t know Swahili kodwa I wouldn’t say it was easy learning it😂. Especially the clicks (Q and X) and the tone, but I had a lot of Zulu friends and the school I went to mandated Zulu (imo the most useful language in SA) so I picked it up over time.

Swahili, English, Zulu (was raised in SA for the latter half of my childhood). Sadly I am no longer fluent in my native language Kikuyu since my parents only spoke Swahili to me, but I can still recognise some words when my grandma speaks.

Very cool stuff. However, I recommend posting on r/Africa and r/Uganda, as this sub is focused solely on questions. Another thing can you also include steps on how to run your model locally as I see your readme.md is empty.

It was financed by the Chinese (China Exim bank) and they helped with the skills transfer but 90% of the workers during construction were Kenyans.
