Naivasha Education stakeholders have petitioned Parliament to save the Laikipia University branch campus from closure.
The Commission for University Education issued a notice for five campuses to close by January for failing to meet the minimum requirements for operation.
The affected campuses are located in Naivasha, Embu, Eldoret, Maralal, Nairobi and Nyahururu towns.
The Naivasha Professional Association led by their chairman Eskimos Kobia said the campus should be relocated to government institutions in Naivasha.
“This is a sad day for the town because more than 500 students will have to stop their studies,” Kobia said.
Affected students have been instructed to report to the main campus beginning in January.
