According to Knut Secretary General Wilson Sossion, the directive is null and void.

 “We will not be turned into slaves. We must rest and have time to go to church,” he said, adding they also needed to spend time with their families.

“Boycott and defy such unprofessional circulars until the union officials are properly consulted."

Sossion was speaking in Mamboleo in Kisumu on Saturday where he unveiled the Sh26 million Kisumu Burial and Benevolent Fund Building.
