The Technical University of Kenya (TUK) blames nearly Sh13 billion in debt, primarily from unpaid statutory deductions and pension contributions, on years of chronic underfunding.

• TUK accumulated Sh12.99 billion in pending bills as of January 31, 2025, impacting statutory deductions, pension funds, CBAs, staff claims, and contractor payments.
• The Senate Labour Committee is reviewing the university's financial situation, which stems from funding shortfalls since its transition from the Kenya Polytechnic.
• A government recovery plan includes a Sh500 million allocation for pension arrears in the 2025/26 financial year, but its full implementation depends on additional funding from the National Treasury and Parliament.

Six sugar distributors and other businesses have sued the Kenyan State over Sh173.58 million owed to them by South Nyanza, Chemelli, and Muhoroni sugar companies following their lease to private operators.

• The petitioners include Lesphine Investments Limited, Patel Chimanlal, Chebaibai Traders Limited, Mahendrabhai Jethabhai Patel, Procel Transport Limited, and Axabd Investment Limited.
