All of them, dictators. Please, universities are supposed to create scholars, not politicians.

Knowing Tanzania's examining body us not basic knowledge? How is it basic?
Of course no one takes our pontificate seriously. But I think you should start by saying this to your fellows who flood our schools and universities right from nursery level.

Good point. Then shut the hell up and don't force me to reason the same you do. We have different outlook on life

It's not ignorance. Not knowing things that are not important in your life is not ignorance. Ignorance is when you think your opinion matters or superior and everyone must subscribe to it . That's ignorance to me. Your friend Chamoto knows about KNEC because it's important to him. I don't know about your examining body because it's not important to me. People only care about things that matter most to them and that's not ignorance

That's the point they are missing. If that were the case, why is UN ranked ahead of University of Dar? An important question that they can't answer

Now, that makes sense. We can now talk.
We have for instance Dr. Joshua Noreh who did the first test tube baby in the region from the University of Nairobi.

Going by your statement, there would be more Tanzanians in these institutions and virtually no Kenyans. Most of these American Universities are quite open and often share their international student numbers.
Here are the most recent admission statistics for the Universities specifically mentioned (plus Yale and Princeton for additional context).

Still, those are independent nations, admitted by the UN and recognised by other nations. Tupe list yako ya peaceful nations, with high HDI led by an alumni of a Kenyan University.

You're having trouble understanding my argument. Let me ask you, were those Kenyans able to transfer any KNEC credit directly to those institutions?

Interesting.... I'm now beginning to doubt your presence in the above-claimed "accredited research University"
First, Your initial post claimed that:
"Most prestigious western education institutions recognize certificates of advanced level secondary education results of Tanzania. They don't do the same for Kenyans (KNEC)" This is clearly wrong and a simple search returned results showing that in each & every institution you named, there were more Kenyans than Tanzanians by a factor of about 7:1. Note that these numbers were specifically for country of origin and exclude US residents (which might push the Kenyan number higher). Meaning these are Kenyans who went through the KCSE system. How are there so many of them and so few Tanzanians if western education institutions don't recognise KNEC certificates but do so for Tanzanian ones? How are they getting into these institutions?🤔
Secondly, (and this makes me further doubt your presence in the named institution and degree of study) you seem to confuse University to University credit transfer systems with credit transfers to a University from a national examination body for high schools. For your information, nowhere in the world can you transfer credit from your high school exams into a university degree program simply because those systems are incomparable. If you were talking about having transferred credits from e.g. UDSM to Brown University in the states, I'd have lent you and ear, but from Azania Sec to Brown University?? That would be a major miracle & I'd be totally curious on how you managed to tackle yours.
