Queries as it emerges that Egerton University's charter was not gazetted

The legal tussle between Egerton University and a member of its staff over the withdrawal of a masters degree has exposed the institution’s soft underbelly after it emerged that its charter has never been gazetted.

Egerton assistant registrar Kepha Omwenga Orina, who is fighting to keep his masters of business administration degree, has now challenged the legality of decisions made by the university senate which he says has been operating without a gazetted charter.
