The High Court in Mombasa has declined to allow the withdrawal of a petition challenging the employment of the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) Chief Executive Officer.
Justice Ocharo Kebira termed the application by Thomas Oyugi as forum shopping and an abuse of the court process.
On February 18, 2026, Oyugi filed an application to withdraw the petition, citing pressing personal circumstances and unforeseen commitments which materially constrained his ability to effectively and consistently participate in and sustain the prosecution of this petition to its logical conclusion.
Oyugi cited TSC, the National Assembly, the Education Cabinet Secretary, Attorney General and CPA Dr Adano Kadubo as interested party.
