    The Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) has threatened to initiate a nationwide teachers' strike next month if the National Treasury does not reverse its decision to slash Ksh10 billion from the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) budget. This budget cut has hindered the TSC from fully implementing the 2021 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA).Addressing a press conference in Nyeri, the union's National Chairman Patrick Karinga expressed concern over the unfulfilled CBA obligations, as evidenced by recent TSC payslips. Flanked by other KNUT officials, Karinga criticized the deduction of TSC funding as immoral and illegal, noting that the CBA has not been rescinded by either party.
