Ousted Kenya Nation Union Teachers (Knut) Secretary General Wilson Sossion has written to the teacher's employer, protesting against scheduled meetings with the union’s new officials.

In a letter dated September 12, through A.J. Guserwa and Company Advocates, Mr Sossion accuses the Teachers Service Commission of secretly planning meetings with the union officials without his knowledge, participation and invitation.

“Our instructions in the matter is to put your office on notice to stop and/or refrain from such conduct without following the laid down procedure for sound and legal industrial relations with our client’s union while observing the protocol required,” states the letter.

Sossion warns that if the scheduled meetings between TSC and Knut officials go on, he will challenge the forums' legality.

“In the event that this is not done, we have instructions to move to court to challenge and nullify the resolutions and the decisions made or arrived at in the said meetings," states the letter.
