Kericho Governor Eric Mutai has warned Butere Girls’ principal Jennifer Omondi that she must be responsible for facing the consequences of the Ehoes of War, a play performed by her school during the drama festivals.
Speaking during the burial of former minister John Koech, Mutai disclosed that those who were shielding the principal from transfer were wrong.
“It disturbs me when people come together to oppose the transfer of the Butere Girls Principal. People must take responsibility for their actions. If you have been entrusted with the leadership of an institution, you should have familiarised yourself with the play beforehand. If anything is unclear, seek clarification from the head of the department. Every action has consequences,” the Kericho governor said.
According to Mutai, it was unfortunate that the students were pushed to chant against the president.
He further reprimanded the former Kakamega Senator, Cleophas Malala, for using students to push his political agenda.
The warning comes amid allegations that Mrs. Omondi had already been transferred to Wajir Day Secondary School in Wajir County.
However, the Teacher Service Commission (TSC) dismissed the allegations, stating that the teacher was still serving as the school’s principal.
