President Uhuru Kenyatta directed Education Cabinet Secretary, Amina Mohamed, on
Tuesday to surrender and restore the ownership of all church-built schools to
the religious institutions.
Speaking during the funeral service
of Archbishop Emeritus of Mombasa, John
Njenga, at University of Nairobi grounds, the Head of State directed the
Ministry to restore church sponsorship of schools.
Uhuru
also urged Amina to implement the directive within seven days.
“There
are many schools built and sponsored by churches. Restore that sponsorship. I
have also given a week for all church-owned land and schools to be restored to
their rightful owners,” Uhuru stated.
The
father of the nation said the move will restore discipline in schools and help
nature responsible citizens.
Archbishop
Njenga was among religious leaders who championed for titling of parcels of land where
churches had put up schools.
