WHO IS LAUGHING NOW?
In summary
Two key officials, who are entangled in KNUT supremacy battles, have been ordered to appear in court and respond to contempt of court charges.
These are the current KNUT chair and registrar of trade unions.
This followed the court’s historic ruling yesterday which dismissed the oust of KNUT’s Secretary General Wilson Sossion as illegal.
The job group M has become a preserve for the few who have either served the commission for eons and they are already tired or those who know people! Is it a wonder that teaching as a profession is not attracting the millennials? It is considered boring and quite unrewarding! Those already in it just view it as a stepping stone for better opportunities. Teachers are ever looking for greener pastures. They are never settled. They are usually on the ready to seize other opportunities that they consider better and fulfilling.

SHOCKING DETAILS ABOUT KNUT’S PLAN TO TRIPLE TEACHERS’ SALARIES
There is always some light at the end of every tunnel no matter how long the passage may seem.
For a very long time now Kenyan teachers have been forced to yield to pressure emanating from their employer the Teachers Service Commission during pay rise tussles between the union and the commission.
However, details have emerged about how the ingenious Kenya National Union of Teachers is planning to make the lives of Kenyan teachers better!
The details have emerged ahead of the World Teachers Day through a confidential document prepared by KNUT’s technical team.
The document partly reveals KNUT’s plans to push for higher pay and more allowances to shield Kenyan teachers from the intolerable economic conditions.
Encouraged by the near successful implementation of the CBA, the union now seeks to triple teachers’ salaries.
This is among the proposals that will be presented to the TSC for further deliberation.
