THE MOI UNIVERSITY RUINS




Stepping at the compound of Moi University Main Campus, one will not pass without noticing thewell-trimmed flowers all-round the corners, but have you ever once noticed the unfinished structure in front of the admiration block?if so have you ever stopped to ask  yourself why it has never been completed?

Well this questions lingered through my mind and right away I sought out to find answers, upon asking some personnel in the admiration block, it was confirmed to me that it was initially meant to be a graduation square and the unfinished structure would serve as the place where the invited  guests would be sited, this information in the first place made a lot of question start streaming through my head again and I wanted to know why a very strategic place like that wouldn’t serve asour graduation square?
The answers I got from various people concerned was the same, first of all the space would never be enough to accommodate the entire population usually witnessed during such vital event and secondly is that the process was halted due to the security of the university’s administration block, because with that event taking place so close to the administration premises it would never guarantee the safety of the vital documents inside the most important building in the compound.
Truth to that the answers were completely genuine but one can take that information with the slightest pinch of salt, first of all there was a committee that sat down to decide on its construction and they knew clearly the space required to accommodate the huge crowd seen in graduation ceremonies and also they were aware of the nose and mouth distance between it and the administration block, so if some asked themselves such question why was the plan underway and knowing in the end it would never live to  its expectation
This way one ask him/herself many more question did someone fail to play his/her role or even worse did someone pocket the money and came to public with space and security reason, evidently there are some buildings in the compound that have taken ages to be completed, say hostel M for example and hostel I which has never even gone beyond its foundation for decades, can we attribute the same obstacles for their slow construction process
Well fair play to the concerned personnel  the university has in place a spacious ground a bit far from the admistration block this way answers have been given to some question, but are their possibility  of seeing half constructed building again in the near future?
