Kenya Methodist University (KeMU) has sent its vice-chancellor Henry Kiriamiti on compulsory leave citing “non-performance”. The move creates a new management crisis that has dogged the institution over the years.
In a letter dated July 17 to Prof Kiriamiti by the university council chairman, Charles Mbui, the VC is required to take all pending annual leave days with immediate effect and hand over to Deputy Vice Chancellor (Academic Affairs) Prof Maurice Okoth.
