Nairobi-based writer covering pan-African higher education trends, scholarships and university landscapes.
About Wanjiru
Wanjiru Kamau is jamb.guide's contributing writer on pan-African higher education, bringing an East African perspective to jamb.guide's coverage of Nigerian and West African admissions. From her base in Nairobi, she writes about cross-continental university trends, the African scholarship landscape, the rise of regional higher-education frameworks, and what Nigerian students should know about studying elsewhere on the continent. Her writing emphasizes the practical reality that African higher education is increasingly mobile — Nigerian students apply to South African and Kenyan institutions, East African students to Nigerian institutions, and the regulatory and qualification-recognition picture is still catching up. She has covered African higher education for several years and is particularly interested in scholarship access and equity questions.
