The High Court has urged the Kenyan government to establish a unified national database for education bursaries and scholarships to improve transparency and oversight.

• The court cited a lack of a centralized tracking system, unclear awarding criteria, and inadequate oversight of bursary programs as raising constitutional concerns.
• The case stemmed from a petition by former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu.
• While declining to order a new fund, the court directed the Executive and Parliament to develop transparent allocation criteria and strengthen accountability.
