KEPSHA gets new leaders as Fuad takes over officially as National Chairman

Fuad Ali has today been officially been sworn in as the new Kenya Primary School Headteachers Association (KEPSHA) National Chairman after confirmation by the Association’s National Governing Council (NGC).

This is after he was sworn in on March 1, 2025 as the acting National Chairman, taking over from the late Johnson Nzioka, who died in a road accident in Athi-River along the busy Nairobi-Mombasa highway in February, 2025.

The Association Constitution allows the National Vice Chairman to act for a period of not more than 90 days as National Chairman before being filled incase of any vacancy in that position, which Fuad has held since March 1, 2025 until his confirmation today by the NGC.
