The Kenya Union of Post-Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) has issued a seven-day strike notice for all teachers nationwide.

While addressing the press on Friday, March 14, KUPPET gave the government seven days to release over Ksh39 billion owed in capitation and medical scheme remittances.

KUPPET threatened to down tools for teachers over what they describe as the suffering of teachers across the country.

The union is accusing the government of breaching court orders.
