Peter Albert Ayiro, the Alliance Girls High School teacher accused of grooming by former students, has resigned after 26 years of service.
In a resignation letter dated August 18 and addressed to the Teachers Service Commission (TSC), Ayiro said he was leaving due to sexual misconduct allegations he described as false. "I hereby tender my resignation from the TSC, effective immediately in accordance with the terms and conditions of service," he wrote. "This decision has not come easily.
It is a result of the false accusations leveled against me." Ayiro was named in a recent Africa Uncensored investigative report in which former students alleged he made sexual advances while serving as both their teacher and Christian Union patron. The claims date back to at least 2018.
Students also accused him of maintaining contact and seeking sexual favors even after they left the school.
