The Employment and Labour Relations Court in Kisii has ordered Maasai Mara University to pay Ksh. 9.1 million in accrued dues to 19 former part-time lecturers who served the institution without compensation for two years.
Delivering the judgment, Justice Nzioki wa Makau held that the public university had repeatedly violated the academic staff members’ constitutional right to fair administrative action under Article 47 by withholding their payments for a decade.
The petition was led by Benard Oichoe Kinara alongside 18 other former lecturers who taught at the university’s Kisii and Kilgoris satellite campuses between 2014 and 2016.
