Fifty teachers resign to contest elections

TSC Commissioner Policy, Samson Wangihomie, said the teacher’s applications to resign have been approved.

However, the resignations have been approved on the back of an agreement struck between the TSC and the resigning teachers.

“We approved their resignation for the purposes of elections with conditions like if they lose the elections, they’ve got to return within two months after the writs are returned,” said Wangihomie

“Now if they don’t return after two months we will terminate them.”
