“Those opposing the CBC system of education from un informed point of view should seek for more information from various researches which have since been undertaken some years back and also understand that only some panel beating is required to make it perfect , “Munene told the media at his school .
Munene , who is also the vice chairman of Kenya Private Schools Association (KPSA), said it was wrong for a section of Kenyans to subject the system to a mob justice without first seeking for what it is composed of .
He also asked politicians to go slow on the system now that the newly elected President of the country Dr William Ruto had agreed to form a task force to look into the matter .

He said scholars like Professor Fatuma Chege have written manuals about the system which are available about the system and wondered how her likes who come from the academia could mislead Kenyans given their expertise on matters education.
