The Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT)  has urged the Teachers Service Commission(TSC) to be fair and considerate in the recruitment process of teachers in the country.

Addressing on Saturday, April 19, the KNUT Secretary General Collins Oyuu said that the commission should prioritize the recruitment of teachers who completed their college education earlier than recent graduates. "The commission must be fair and human.

The idea of picking on a teacher who completed teachers college in 2023 and leaving those who completed college in 2010 leaves more questions than answers," he said. "And as a union, we must state categorically that even in employment, you must be very fair, because we have teachers who are over 50 years old, where will they go, because they are still outside there, they must be employed," he said.
