The Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) is demanding enhanced protection for teachers in Nyandarua following threats against non-local staff. Ethnic incitement during the Ol Kalou by-election campaigns has led to safety fears.

• 61 teachers have requested transfers from the county due to threats.
• The union, led by Deputy Secretary General Moses Nthurima and Chair Omboko Milemba, is urging authorities to act.
• Politicians are accused of engaging in ethnic incitement to win votes, putting teachers and other civil servants "in the crosshairs."
