Pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44(2)(c), I wish to request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Education regarding the recent declaration of certain positions in Moi University redundant. On 2nd April 2025, due to alleged financial constraints, Moi University issued a notice of intention to declare a significant number of positions in the institution redundant. The affected staff presumed that the process would be transparent, consultative and lawful. It is alleged that the institution procured the services of an external consultant to undertake this exercise. On 13th May 2025, the institution proceeded to issue termination letters without exhausting consultative processes with the staff. The redundancy has rendered many jobless, thereby affecting their source of livelihood and the lives of their dependents. In addition, the list of positions declared redundant allegedly included names of those who had since left the service through retirement, the deceased or those whose employment had already been The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
