The two Leaders are set to hold discussions on the upgrade of the National Forensic Laboratory and other security programs.

The Teacher Service Commission has proposed reforms to the TSC Amendment Bill, highlighting holiday tuition as a disciplinary offense that could lead to job termination.

This proposition has stoked opposition from the Kenya National Union of Teachers, who argue that their perspectives were not considered during the reform proposal process.

Prior attempts to ban holiday tuition in 2008 and 2016 were unsuccessful due to the lack of a specific penalty for teachers conducting classes during holidays. The practice of holiday coaching is a means for teachers to supplement their income.

There are claims that some teachers intentionally omit topics during the regular term to compel students to

Todays Halting of the Housing Levy by the court or appeal is inconsequential and temporary.

The bill below published on 4th of December 2023 in the Kenya Gazette, outlines the Legal Framework for the establishment of the Affordable Housing Fund, How to Access the Affordable Housing and the imposition of the Affordable Housing Levy to finance the provision of the Affordable Housing.

This bill is seeking to amend the issues raised in the November 30th judgment by The 3 judges who declared the Housing Levy Unconstitutional, by arguing that the introduction of the housing levy amendment to section 84, lacked a comprehensive legal framework in violation of Article 10 of the constitution, arguing that levy against persons in formal employment without justification is discriminatory and irrational.

The judgement today by the Court of Appeal is among the many formidable hurdles that the William Samoei Ruto Government is eventually going to overcome and deliver the Affordable Housing that’s going to change the lives of Kenyans by providing dignified housing and the much needed employment opportunities.

Super CS Kithure Kindiki , has insisted that he will not let politicians meddle in the ongoing security operations in bandit-hit regions.

Speaking at Ngaratuko Primary School grounds, in Baringo North subcounty on Tuesday, Kindiki said security agencies must be allowed time and space to do their jobs.

The CS said the ongoing operation to root out bandits and armed criminals from the region has nothing to do with politics. He said that it also has nothing to do with culture.

He warned politicians who have always used banditry and livestock rustling to advance their political ambitions that times have changed, and their days are numbered.
