Teacher threatens to down tools over pay rise

Teachers have threatened to down their tools next month if the employer, Teachers Service Commission(TSC) does not obey the court order and award the a 50-60% pay rise.

KNUT Secretary General Wilson Sossion and Chairman Mudzo Nzili have also said that they will pull out of the AON medical cover claiming it is being given to specific teachers and on selective terms.

“The simple fact about teachers is that, end of August, if there are no salaries; 50,60, they will not resume duty on September... the war has just began” Sossion said.

Speaking at the KNUT headqaurter in Nairobi on Sunday the two also warned TSC against using medical schemes to weaken KNUT.

“The employer has found this is the way to finish us(KNUT)... let the employer remain with there AON and teachers remain with the medical allowance...” Mudzo triumphed.

The union has also questioned the independence of TSC saying that the govt and the SRC has time and again compromised TSC.
