While we do not condone any institution operating outside the law, we are alarmed that TVETA’s notice makes zero provision for the protection of thousands of currently enrolled students who bear no responsibility for KIM’s institutional failures. These are Kenyan consumers of education services who: •Paid tuition fees in good faith •Are mid-programme with examinations pending •Hold legitimate expectations of completing their qualifications •May now face unemployment, visa complications, or professional setbacks through no fault of their own. This must be reviewed asap @TVETAKenya @KIMKenya @EduMinKenya @elimikatrust

I have never understood why Ruto keeps this incompetent, insatiably greedy and irreparably inept man ⭕️ @JuliusKBitok messed the Grade 10 admissions. ⭕️ He is now pushing to get the lion share of the Sh7B budget for Grade 11 text books — yet he is not a publisher! @WilliamsRuto

As a former Council member of Masinde Muliro University of Science & Technology, I’m deeply embarrassed ⭕️ @DrMukhisaKituyi shocking revelation that graduands appeared on lists without ever attending class demands IMMEDIATE investigation ⭕️ A degree must be earned — not conjured. Who approved these lists? Who benefits? #MMUST @MMUST_Kenya @EduMinKenya @CUE_Kenya

This is the second such incident at Gilgil Hills Academy; ⭕️ A Class 7 girl who had been enrolled at the school since 2006 died on 28 July 2008 from peritonitis after the school’s nurse treated her for two days without hospitalizing her or notifying her parents ⭕️ Her father argued the school failed in its duty of care by relying on an unqualified nurse who prescribed medication based solely on a phone consultation, without any medical tests. ⭕️ The family sued, and both the trial court and the Court of Appeal found the school liable, awarding Sh2.1M in damages ⭕️ The school’s director Isaac Kamunyo was also separately charged with attempting to bribe a @StandardKenya journalist Sh70,000 to suppress reporting on the incident.​​​​​​​​​​​ @EduMinKenya @elimikatrust

At Gilgil Hills Academy, Nakuru, a pupil went missing on Friday 27th March 2026 and was found dead in the school fishpond. The class teacher and the principal gave conflicting reports where the class teacher said that the child fell ill, and was pronounced dead upon arrival at a hospital. The principal on the other hand reported that the child drowned in the school fish pond. The family of the diseased have stormed the school demanding answers.

A Kenyan-built robotic arm is changing how deaf students learn ⭕️ Paired with a sensor-fitted suit, it translates spoken words into gestures in real time ⭕️ This is what innovation for inclusion looks like

Is this #AI or real? Can PS @Muoria_Dr confirm she said this? ⭕️ If yes, corporates should be careful being associated with such reckless statements ⭕️ In any case it can’t be true that ALL young Kenyans in Australia belong to one ethnicity. Majority or all?

Forget the school uniform optics —let's talk about the school purse ⭕️ We need legislation that builds endowments and rewards alumni giving ⭕️ Imagine a world where VIP graduates and corporate firms compete not on cars, but on how many kids from underfunded schools they put through school, college and university! @elimikatrust

After 40+ years of flying our national schools exams to UK—to be printed under lock and key, Kenya will now print national exams locally ⭕️ From Heathrow security to JKIA arrivals — that era ends ⭕️ The big question: does local printing cut costs, boost sovereignty or leakage?

On Nov 17, 2024 — #HelpRemindRuto that he “gave Sh1B to build Nairobi schools” and specified having given Sh58M to each Nairobi MP to build at least 30 classrooms ⭕️ 15 months later and #LestRutoForgets - there is nothing to show for it!

When politicians with unresolved murder cases start chasing relevance, institutions pay the price. ⭕️ Majority of them have never seen a genuine degree certificate in their own names. Yet they want to offer lectures on governing universities ⭕️ My deepest condolences to the family of the late Prof. Siamba of Kibabii University. ⭕️ It is reckless and foolish for politicians to demand that a VC must come from their county ⭕️ That kind of ethnic and political interference is exactly how universities collapse—just look at Moi University after they rejected Prof. Ayiro.

Good to see serious conversations on education taking centre stage. When seasoned leaders like @gpdkaluma move away from empty political slogans [like Wantam/Tutam] and focus on substance, it gives some of us hope. ⭕️ Governments are temporary — institutions and systems are not. Kibaki served and left. Uhuru served and left. @WilliamsRuto is serving now and will one day leave too. The real issue is not who claims credit or blame over CBC, but how we deliver quality, affordable, and sustainable education for Kenyan children. ⭕️ That starts with accountability. If certain administrators like @JuliusKBitok & @HonJuliusMigos (ask @KIMANIICHUNGWAH) are widely seen as ineffective, leadership should have the courage to make changes in the public interest. ⭕️ Now that you are in government, the focus should not be on past personalities like @RealMatiangi, but on your own performance. ⭕️ Kenyans want a clear report card on the state of education — what’s working, what’s not, and what you are doing to fix it @elimikatrust
Hon. George Peter Kaluma (Commentaries)@gpdkaluma

Kibaki declared free Primary Education but didn't invest in it. Uhuru and Matiangi were rudderless with their ill-equipped CBC and skewed school infrastructure funding. Kenya's Education sector is stronger under President @WilliamsRuto than ever before because of focussed investments and reforms. Schools infrastructure being build even as teachers are being recruited. CBE is firming up. HELB is reformed for better access to University Education. BBG is moving Kenya to the first world!

MP @KIMANIICHUNGWAH is extremely right on @JuliusKBitok being the most clueless PS at @EduMinKenya ⭕️ H.E @WilliamsRuto should make immediate changes at the Ministry ⭕️ Education is far too dear to left in the hands of jokers esp the media—pressers PS who has never been in any school outside Nairobi

I’d sell my chicken in Tongaren just to add a chapter to the story of Mama Mboga group who sacrificed their meager earnings to take Fridah Luwoi — a total orphan — to Nyanchwa Senior School. This is the Kenya we don’t celebrate enough #UnsungHeroes @elimikatrust @HonJuliusMigos
