Reprieve for union as court stops employer from ending accord

The Kenya National Union of Teachers (Knut) has secured a temporary order stopping the teachers’ employer from abandoning a recognition agreement.

Knut’s lawyer Judith Guserwa said the notice issued by Teachers Service Commission (TSC) boss Nancy Macharia (pictured) to terminate the agreement signed on May 15, 1968, was without basis as the union still has the simple majority teachers.
