On Thursday, the High court issued orders temporarily barring the registrar of trade unions and TSC from removing or de-registering Sossion.

Judge Maureen Onyango of the Employment and Labour Relations court certified the matter urgent and ordered the registrar of trade unions, TSC and Knut deputy SG Hesbon Otieno to file their responses before May 9.

They were also directed to appear in court on May 10 for hearing.

"A temporary prohibition order is hereby issued barring the respondents from registering, appointing, recognising, putting or placing any person as Knut secretary general in place of Sossion pending the hearing of the application," the judge said.

An injuction was also issued restraining Otieno or any other person from purporting to act in place of Sossion as Knut secretary general.
