The Education Cabinet Secretary (CS), Julius Ogamba, has once again put on notice school principals holding national examination certificates for students with school fee arrears that they risk facing disciplinary action as well as being jailed.
The CS said despite issuing the same directive a few days ago, some principals have ignored it, warning that continued holding of the certificates is illegal.
Speaking at MaryHill Girls High School when he presided over a Prize Giving Day on Wednesday, the CS said they are waiting for a report from the County Education officials on the status of uncollected certificates after the lapse of 14 days and any School Head found culpable will face the law. "People have said this directive has been given many times and so nothing is going to happen. I assure you that something is going to happen.
You will face both disciplinary and legal action.
