Nyoro Demands Release of Sh60bn Owed to Private Universities
Nyoro said delays in settling the outstanding payments were placing an unfair financial burden on private institutions that continue to educate students under government-supported arrangements.
PPK leader Ndindi Nyoro has called on the Kenyan government to release Sh60 billion owed to private universities, citing neglect of the higher education sector under President William Ruto's administration. Nyoro highlighted the financial strain on private institutions that continue to educate students under government-supported arrangements and warned that continued underfunding could undermine the delivery of university education nationwide.
He also criticized the government's handling of the university lecturers' strike, urging the resolution of the industrial action to restore stability in the higher education sector.
