To come up with a dissertation requires commitment and co-operation from several key
actors and the university. It is impossible to mention all of them. I wish to acknowledge the
help provided by my supervisor Mr. Augustus Mbila who devoted much of his time and
supervision during the preparation of this document. I would also like to show my deepest
appreciation to my facilitator Dr. Ruth Thinguri who helped and guided me to finalize my
dissertation without her guidance it would have been very challenging.
