Head teachers affected by Teachers Service Commission (TSC) transfers have reported to their new stations.
Long-serving Kakamega High School principal Oliver Minishi said he was happy with the transfer and promised to leave a legacy at Nanyuki High School, his new posting.
“I have served Kakamega High for the past 11 years. I have done my best to ensure the school tops in sports and academics,” said Mr Minishi.
He has been replaced by Gerald Orina, formerly of Nyambaria High School in Nyamira County.
Minishi replaces John Kuira who was moved to Chavakali High School to take over from Indimuli Kahi, who has been moved to Machakos High School.
