Invitation: Public Participation Forum on Digitisation of Citizen Services

I believe KICTANET has the VOICE and does get the EARS of the powers that
be. KICTANET Leadership, please do the needful. We need to have this
important event VERY inclusive. Unfortunately we only have 2 days to the
earmarked day.

Regards,
Twahir
