Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers Secretary General Akello Misori (centre) and other Kuppet officials address the media in Nairobi on September 20, 2024.
On November 2, 2024, the national executive board of the union met with President William Ruto at State House, Nairobi, and the matter is understood to have been on the agenda, although it was left out of the briefing later.
A statement by Secretary-General Akello Misori only discussed other matters like the Affordable Housing programme and the employment of more teachers, steering clear of seeking the President’s intervention.
The Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (Kuppet) is anxiously waiting to see whether it will receive the monthly union contributions from its membership after missing out on the crucial funds for the last three months.
The union has dragged the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) to court over its failure to deduct and remit union dues from teachers since the union called a nationwide strike in August.
