Former Mandera Senator Billow Kerow has weighed in on the mounting woes of Kenya National Union of Teachers (Knut) secretary-general Wilson Sossion.
In a tweet on Saturday, the former legislator contended that Sossion's ouster in line with a trend where people defy court orders.
"Govt often cares little about court orders or the rule of law when its interests are at stake. It's shows low level of fidelity to constitutionalism, " Kerow's tweet read.
Keriow's tweet was accompanied by a tweet from former presidential candidate and renowned academician Prof James Ole Kiyiapi who wondered why the Ministry of Labour had moved to oust Sossion.
Sossion ouster marked an escalation of his very public feud with the Kenyan government that has been pushing for his removal from his plum Knut job.
The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) deregistered him as a teacher citing his foray into politics as the basis of the decision to register him.
His deregistration was ratified by the court in a case that Sossion lost.
Apart from a frontal-war from government institutions, Sossion has also been grappling with an internal revolt by card-carrying members of Knut who want him to step down.
