Teacher Strikes Paralyse Second Term School Reopening

Teacher strikes are taking place across various counties in Kenya, including Busia, Nyandarua, and Kisii, due to poor compensation and job insecurity for intern teachers. In Busia, teachers have stated they will halt school operations until the government addresses their concerns. Nyandarua teachers are demanding permanent and pensionable positions, while those in Kisii are calling for a review of the 2021-2025 Collective Bargaining Agreement to address pay disparities.
