The ongoing recruitment of 20,000 teachers by the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) is skewed to favour pro-government Members of Parliament, Naivasha MP Jane Kihara has claimed.

According to Kihara, the exercise should be suspended and investigations instituted over alleged bias and skewed process.

The lawmaker alleged that the exercise has taken a political angle with some constituencies benefitting while others were locked out.

As a result of the exercise, Kihara noted that hundreds of teachers who had met the set academic standards and levels would miss out.
