Uzima University remains Credible, Compliant and forward-Looking institution, says VC.

The Uzima University remains Credible, Compliant and a forward-looking institution that offers quality training and research, says the Institution’s Vice Chancellor.

The Vice Chancellor of Uzima University Reverend Prof Cosmas Rhagot K’Otienoh has assured the Institution’s stakeholders that include Students, Parents, Partners and Collaborators that their qualifications remains fully accredited and recognized.

Addressing the press in Kisumu today at Uzima University to clear the air on some publication from a section of media outlets that appeared last Sunday on June 14 this Year that portrayed the institution as of the Universities that lacks standards to train the students in the school of Medicine , the Vice Chancellor said such publication are so misleading.

K’Otienoh says such publication is based on the findings of over seven years ago in 2019/2020 and does not reflect reality of the Institution’s today’s standing as per the various regulators namely Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council, East African Community Partner States and Commission for University Education.

The Vice Chancellor says at that time, the institution was known as Uzima University College.

“Since then, the University has undergone significant transformation that includes being granted a full charter on May 8, 2025 by President Dr. William Ruto. This was after a rigorous evaluation by the regulatory bodies. It is now a fully-fledged private university,” says the Vice Chancellor.

He says this now demonstrates the credible progress and Compliance of the institution.

The Vice Chancellor says the failure to present the current position has caused serious harm to the institution, adding that the publication has really dented the image of the Institution both locally and internationally.

He further says the University remains committed to Excellence, Integrity and Continuous Improvement.
