The ceremony left the Malava village fraternity awed with the flamboyance and ambience displayed at his homestead.
Speaker after the other, heaped praises to Dr. Fred Wasike in the thanksgiving ceremony celebrating the conferment of Doctor of philosophy (PHD) in business administration by the University of Nairobi.
Dr. Wasike before his conferment is also a holder of CHRP, CPS, SPHRi, GPHR, SHRM-SCP and his recent PHD comes after 9years of study sponsored by the motor company.
Rita termed Dr. Wasike as behind the happiness in the company and lauded his achievement in education as a true attestation that he really values the vice.
She pointed out that Fred believes in perfection and that has been the driving force towards the company success.
"He encouraged us to learn from each other as a team and that learning bond has seen Isuzu command the largest market share within Kenya’s motor industry" Rita said.
She said Fred has been her right hand man for the company for the last 13 years saying through him she learnt and achieved a lot.
"His commitment to delivering to the company aspirations has seen him recently being awarded the global professional human resource award meaning his steadfast commitment is also recognized globally".
Dr. Wasike congratulated the company for paying his tuition and being patient with him for the last 9 years as he shuffled between work, class and family.
"As a family we value education so much and that is why we have a FLADS family flag that stands for the first initials of my family with four pillars including education, health, religion and caring where they all go hand in hand if one has to make it in life"
“Our family love for education has seen us engage in numerous educational matters both at Malava and Navakholo where we have engaged in sponsoring less privileged students pursue their education right from primary to university level.
He further encouraged the young and old to embrace education whenever a chance arises as it is the best equalizer in life.
