The vocal secretary-general of one of Kenya’s oldest and biggest trade union, Wilson Sossion has finally bowed out of the struggling outfit. And he left in tears, alone and betrayed by his former comrades.

His exit handed an easy win to Collins Oyuu, the acting Kenya National Union of Teachers (Knut) national chairman who by close of yesterday’s 5pm deadline was the only candidate eyeing the top seat.
