The Kenya Universities Staff Union (Kusu) and the Kenya Union of Domestic, Hotels, Education Institutions, Hospitals and Allied Workers (Kudheiha) were also part of the deal. Last week, though, the lecturers and the other university workers capitulated and agreed to go with the SRC position. Understandably, this is what threw the lecturers into a rage and made them vow to boycott work from January 20. Why were the lecturers not told in advance that the pay deal would have to wait for the next financial year? Why did the government wait until the universities were ready to reopen to announce it has no money?
