Government to appeal High Court judgment on eCitizen school fee payments

Julius Bitok officially takes over as Basic Education PS after swapping dockets with Belio Kipsang who moves to Immigration; pledges to prioritise extensive consultations to streamline CBC implementation.

The government has announced plans to appeal a High Court judgement that declared its directive requiring school fees to be paid exclusively through the eCitizen platform illegal.
