Tuesday, April 22, 2025 - President William Ruto’s Senior Economic Advisor, Moses Kuria, has taken a swipe at politicians issuing Teachers Service Commission (TSC) employment letters at public events, calling the practice dangerous and shameful.
In a strongly worded statement on Tuesday, April 22nd,
Kuria warned that such actions undermine national integrity and could lead the
country down a perilous path.
“There
are several great ideas on how best to destroy a nation.”
“But
the most glittering of recent times is politicians parading teachers’
employment forms in public rallies and funerals.”
“It's
so sad, especially for us, the products of great teachers.”
“We
have sunk this low, sadly,” said Kuria.
Kuria’s comments appear to be a thinly veiled rebuke of some
of President Ruto’s close allies, who have been photographed distributing TSC
appointment letters at political gatherings, a move widely seen as a bid to woo
voters.
His criticism also hints at a possible fallout between him
and the President's inner circle, raising questions about internal divisions in
Ruto’s administration.
The Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) had earlier
echoed similar concerns.
Secretary General Collins Oyuu accused the TSC of abdicating
its constitutional mandate by allowing political interference in the
recruitment of teachers.
“Never,
never in the history of TSC have we seen what is happening now.”
“TSC
should be ready to work and operate within its mandate.”
“And
the mandate in this question is the recruitment of teachers,” Oyuu stated.
