Mr. Mbote has recently been investing in his own professional development and will be graduating this year with a Master of Business Administration degree with specialization in oil and gas.

His paper, “Effects of 2014/2015 Global Oil Benchmark Prices Decline on Oil and Gas Exploration and Appraisal Drilling in Kenya”, allowed him to conduct in depth research into the Kenyan oil industry and understand critical factors for success.
