He used that opportunity to thank Kenyans for maintaining peace during and after the election, a situation that he said will enable students to report to their respective schools and continue with their learning without interruption.
The Chairperson also reminded all parents to pay school fees on time so as to enable school heads to run schools smoothly.
Parents should pay school fees to enable all school heads in Kenya to run the schools efficiently because students will have to eat, school workers will have to be paid and suppliers will need their money,” he said.
