A whole board of management of Maseno National School has resigned.

The resignation was in protest of the recent interdiction of former Principal Mr Paul Otula.

The board has rejected the new principal, Andrew Buop, saying he has a tainted past.

Board members also said their resignation was also a protest against the process of replacing Mr Otula, adding that the Ministry of Education and the Teachers Service Commission was undermining them.

Mr Otula was interdicted last month over allegations of sodomy in school. A Form One student in the school claimed that he had been sodomised by other senior students.

The TSC handed Mr Otula a 30-day suspension and posted Mr Buop, then a principal at Homa Bay High School, to replace him.

Following Mr Otula’s suspension, teachers from Kisumu threatened to stage a demonstration to demand his reinstatement.

Maseno School students had in March also gone on the rampage protesting the interdiction of their principal.
