The Narok Branch elections of the Kenya Union of Post-Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET), suspended on January 11 due to security concerns, are now expected to be held on March 8, 2026, at the William Ole Ntimama Stadium.
The date is yet to be officially confirmed, and the union is expected to issue a circular to finalise the schedule.
The elections, originally held at Ole Tipis Girls High School, began peacefully as teachers from across the county arrived to cast their votes.
