Bomet Governor Hillary Barchok is set to appear before the Senate Committee on Education on Thursday to address concerns surrounding the dismissal of Robert Chebusit, an early childhood development education (ECDE) teacher.

Chebusit, who was also the secretary of the Bomet ECDE Teachers Association, had his contract terminated by the county public service board in May. This action has sparked controversy as it came after Chebusit actively advocated for the rights of ECDE teachers, including filing a petition with the Senate in September 2023.

Senator Hillary Sigei, who raised the issue on the Senate floor on August 6, has expressed concerns that Chebusit’s dismissal was carried out without proper notice or clear justification. Sigei is urging the committee, chaired by Murang’a Senator Joseph Nyutu, to investigate several aspects of the case:

1. Circumstances of Dismissal: The committee should provide a detailed account of why Chebusit was dismissed, including whether due process was followed and if any internal disciplinary procedures were adhered to.

2. Reasons for Dismissal: Sigei wants to know if the reasons for Chebusit’s dismissal were communicated to him in advance and whether they were justified.

3. Connection to Advocacy: An investigation into whether Chebusit’s dismissal was linked to his advocacy work and the petition he filed is also requested.

4. County Response: The committee should examine the steps taken by the county to address the grievances raised by Chebusit and whether these actions played a role in his dismissal.

5. Recommendations: Sigei seeks recommendations to protect the rights of ECDE teachers and other workers, ensuring that advocates for improved working conditions are not subjected to retaliation or personal vendettas.

The committee’s findings will be crucial in determining if proper procedures were followed and in addressing potential issues of retaliation against individuals advocating for worker rights.
