Reports indicate that he linked his story to Ruto’s push for fairness in education, which he called “Usawa.” He said he would have done better if he had studied under the current reforms.
Ruto used the same meeting to direct the Ministry of Education to work with school heads on a further review of capitation to take inflation into account, according to Citizen Digital. He said the ministry should present its proposal by January. He said the government had released Sh44 billion in January, Sh23.4 billion in April and Sh18.5 billion in August. He added that education takes nearly 30 per cent of the budget each year.
Mombasa Governor Abdulswamad Nassir said Ruto was promoting equality, citing the recruitment of more teachers, according to Citizen Digital.
Joho has spoken about his school results before. In 2017, he confirmed that he scored a D- in the 1993 KCSE at Serani Secondary School in Mombasa, according to Citizen Digital. He said he was proud of the grade and that he had struggled to raise his own school fees. At the time, the Kenya National Examinations Council said a certificate showing a higher grade was not genuine, according to the Nation.
