NAIROBI: Kenya National Union of Teachers (Knut) Secretary General Wilson Sossion has distanced himself from the deal brokered by State House, Teachers Service Commission (TSC) and some union officials.

Terming it ‘null and void’ Mr Sossion said he is the sole spokesman of the giant teachers' union and the decisions reached in his absence are not binding to the union members.
