The crisis in the education sector came into sharp focus during the ongoing National Assembly retreat in Naivasha, where MPs launched a blistering attack on Ministry of Education officials over the chaotic transition to Grade 10.

Led by Majority Leader Kimani Ichung’wah, legislators accused the Principal Secretary in the ministry, Julius Bitok, of incompetence and urged Cabinet Secretary Julius Ogamba to urgently put his house in order.
