The Technical University of Kenya (TUK) is under renewed scrutiny from Parliament due to longstanding financial difficulties that have paralysed operations and disrupted learning.
The National Assembly's Public Investments Committee (PIC) on Governance and Education has directed the Office of the Auditor-General to conduct a comprehensive audit of the university's finances.
The exercise, set to span three months, will cover the period from 2013-when the institution received its charter-to date.
The committee's intervention follows revelations that the university has not paid full salaries to its employees since 2013 and is grappling with pending bills amounting to over Sh11 billion.
