Teachers in Kakamega have called for the introduction of integrity classes in schools to check on the rising moral decadence in the community.

Speaking at the sidelines of a training session to impart them with moral lessons, the tutors regretted that most learners lacked morals, the reason why there was increased crime rates, rising divorces, higher rates of substance abuse, widespread corruption, and the decline of ethical behaviors in business and politics in the country.
