Thousands of graduates who were hopeful of landing employment and promotions with the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) will have to wait longer.
This comes after the commission admitted that it is facing inadequate budgetary allocation to fund its activities.
Appearing before the National Assembly's Constitutional Implementation Oversight Committee (CIOC), TSC Chief Executive Officer Nancy Macharia told lawmakers that the commission is facing a growing human resource crisis that could undermine Kenya's education sector.
According to the TSC boss, the situation could worsen with the implementation of the Senior Secondary School under the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC), which would require an additional number of teachers.
