Kenya National Union of Teachers (Knut) National treasurer John Matiang’i has hit out on the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) for forcing teachers to attend educational seminars and workshops during weekends and holidays.
Matiang’i said the move by TSC to force teachers to attend the said workshops was illegal and individualistic aimed at intimidating teachers.
Speaking in Kisii on Sunday, while presiding over the branch elections, the treasurer said the commission’s action is unconstitutional as it interferes with freedom of worship.
