Egerton University Vice Chancellor Rose Mwonya's five-year term in office has officially expired. Mwonya has been challenging the university's attempt to send her on terminal leave over allegations of gross misconduct pending the expiry of her contract. As the council announced her retirement yesterday, she was back in court, which has saved her job at least twice before. “Ordinarily a person should take a paid terminal leave months to their retirement. On November 13, last year, the council directed Mwonya to proceed on terminal leave and hand over her office to Kibwage, who had been appointed as the acting vice chancellor.
