Dear H.E @WilliamsRuto: Moving an incompetent, inept and arrogant PS like @JuliusKBitok doesn’t cure anything. He must be sacked. Over to @PSCKenya @koske_felix

Why High Court Blocked CS Duale’s Attempt to Scrap @MountKenyaUni’s Oral Health Degree 🫆Lack of legal authority — Only the @CUE_Kenya not @MOH_Kenya CS, has statutory power to approve, regulate, or discontinue academic programmes at Kenyan universities 🫆Statutory mandate overstepped — Duale acted outside his mandate by directing MKU to discontinue the programme and prepare transition arrangements for enrolled students 🫆Improper communication channel — The Health Ministry communicated directly with the university on academic matters, bypassing CS for @EduMinKenya, which the court found constitutionally irregular 🫆Letter was a directive, not advice — Though framed as advisory, the court found the letter compelled the university to develop exit arrangements and report within set timelines — making it effectively a directive 🫆Universities Act is clear — The Act exclusively vests CUE with power to recognise, licence, approve and accredit academic programmes; where conflicts arise between the Universities Act and other statutes, the Universities Act prevails 🫆Programme was duly accredited — CUE confirmed the programme’s accreditation on April 21, noting it was approved by the university senate before January 13, 2017 and accredited under the Universities Act No. 42 of 2012 🫆Conduct characterised as unlawful — The judge described Duale’s actions as “improper, unreasonable, irresponsible and in bad faith” amounting to usurpation of mandate 🫆This ruling directly protects your university’s Bachelor of Science in Oral Health programme and the 225 students enrolled in it.

Is the arrogant Julius Kibet Bitok above the law? Untouchable? … But for how long? @PSCKenya @NAssemblyKE

Lenana School. Home of generals and Cabinet Secretaries. Now sending students home after disturbances. School fires and unrest are not discipline problems — they are a policy failure. Ogamba and Bitok are the wrong tools for this crisis @elimikatrust

Seems there's a big problem with school heads. Statehouse girls reports from students said the girls were complaining about hunger and no water. Instead one was strangled. In another school a boy is beaten because he talked to a girl who principal is in a relationship with

Burning to death in their sleep: Kenya's endless school fire disasters and govt's criminal negligence and the case of Utumishi Girls Academy tragedy @EduMinKenya @elimikatrust cofek.africa/burning-to-deat…

Not, again! 🫆At least 10 girls are dead after a dormitory fire tore through Utumishi Girls Academy in Gilgil, Nakuru County — while they slept, at 1am 🫆 Kenya Red Cross responded at 3:30am. Parents are gathered at the gate. The headcount is still ongoing 🫆 After Endarasha (21 dead, 2024). After Nyeri. After Kakamura. After all of them — we are still burying schoolchildren in the middle of the night. 🫆 Fire safety in Kenya’s boarding schools is not a policy gap. It is a body count. 🫆 Who is accountable? 🫆 🕯️ Rest in peace, young ones. My generation has failed you. Condolences to the families.

Good objective, Mr. President. Wrong execution. 🫆School fees is a private transaction between a parent and a school 🫆Not a gateway for eCitizen rent-seekers to double their “convenience fee” on the backs of struggling families 🫆Fix public schools. Cut costs. Stay out of my wallet. 🫆My fees. My payment method. My choice! @WilliamsRuto @EduMinKenya

I can’t believe it 🧐; when TVET is poorly funded, after funding cuts from development partners. @smutoro

While we do not condone any institution operating outside the law, we are alarmed that TVETA’s notice makes zero provision for the protection of thousands of currently enrolled students who bear no responsibility for KIM’s institutional failures. These are Kenyan consumers of education services who: •Paid tuition fees in good faith •Are mid-programme with examinations pending •Hold legitimate expectations of completing their qualifications •May now face unemployment, visa complications, or professional setbacks through no fault of their own. This must be reviewed asap @TVETAKenya @KIMKenya @EduMinKenya @elimikatrust

I have never understood why Ruto keeps this incompetent, insatiably greedy and irreparably inept man ⭕️ @JuliusKBitok messed the Grade 10 admissions. ⭕️ He is now pushing to get the lion share of the Sh7B budget for Grade 11 text books — yet he is not a publisher! @WilliamsRuto

As a former Council member of Masinde Muliro University of Science & Technology, I’m deeply embarrassed ⭕️ @DrMukhisaKituyi shocking revelation that graduands appeared on lists without ever attending class demands IMMEDIATE investigation ⭕️ A degree must be earned — not conjured. Who approved these lists? Who benefits? #MMUST @MMUST_Kenya @EduMinKenya @CUE_Kenya

Most unfortunate development. The @TSC_KE needs to issue an urgent clarification in the public interest @KuppetKenya @KenyaKnut

This is the second such incident at Gilgil Hills Academy; ⭕️ A Class 7 girl who had been enrolled at the school since 2006 died on 28 July 2008 from peritonitis after the school’s nurse treated her for two days without hospitalizing her or notifying her parents ⭕️ Her father argued the school failed in its duty of care by relying on an unqualified nurse who prescribed medication based solely on a phone consultation, without any medical tests. ⭕️ The family sued, and both the trial court and the Court of Appeal found the school liable, awarding Sh2.1M in damages ⭕️ The school’s director Isaac Kamunyo was also separately charged with attempting to bribe a @StandardKenya journalist Sh70,000 to suppress reporting on the incident.​​​​​​​​​​​ @EduMinKenya @elimikatrust

A Kenyan-built robotic arm is changing how deaf students learn ⭕️ Paired with a sensor-fitted suit, it translates spoken words into gestures in real time ⭕️ This is what innovation for inclusion looks like

Is this #AI or real? Can PS @Muoria_Dr confirm she said this? ⭕️ If yes, corporates should be careful being associated with such reckless statements ⭕️ In any case it can’t be true that ALL young Kenyans in Australia belong to one ethnicity. Majority or all?

The Bursaries Scandal ~ @PeopleDailyKe

Forget the school uniform optics —let's talk about the school purse ⭕️ We need legislation that builds endowments and rewards alumni giving ⭕️ Imagine a world where VIP graduates and corporate firms compete not on cars, but on how many kids from underfunded schools they put through school, college and university! @elimikatrust
