Despite being a pioneer JSS teacher, she has been confined to her home for three days. She is struggling to cope with the unexpected directive.
“We were on an industrial strike and returned after re-tooling. However, the head teacher told my friends and me that we shouldn’t report back to school,” she said.
Kerubo’s situation is dire; she lives in a single room, relying on leftover food and sugarcane for sustenance.

“The Teachers Service Commission should observe transparency. Now I have been fired, and I have a child to send to school. How will I manage this?” she lamented.
