Nyamira, Ogembo, Keroka, Isebania and Kehancha campuses of the Kisii University have been closed to comply with government's directive.
The closure of the 5 campuses comes 6 months after Education CS Fred Matiang'i appointed the advisory committee on eminent persons.
The Commission for University Education (CUE) and the Advisory Committee on Eminent Persons (ACEP) recommended the closure of the satellite campuses.
In an advertisement on Tuesday dailies, the university made the announcement citing that students from the affected campuses will be accommodated from January 2017 in other campuses that have not been closed such as; Eldoret, Kericho, Kabarnet, Kapenguria, Kisumu, Migori, Kitale, and Nairobi.
“All the students in the affected campuses are advised to relocate to Kisii University, Main Campus or any other campuses of Kisii University starting from the second week of January 2017,” the university's advertisement read.
