Moi University has suspended all learning and teaching activities with immediate effect, following a special meeting held on Thursday, October 3, 2024. The suspension, covering the entire 2024/2025 first semester, is in response to industrial action by the university’s staff and growing student unrest, according to an internal memo released by the Office of the Vice Chancellor.

The memo, signed by Vice-Chancellor Prof. Isaac S. Kosgey, states, “The University Senate… resolved to suspend the teaching and learning activities of the 1st Semester 2024/2025 Academic Year as a consequence of the industrial action of staff and subsequent student unease.”

The university has ordered all students to vacate the premises immediately, stating, “All students in all Campuses should vacate the University premises with immediate effect,” and added that students residing in university halls must “vacate with immediate effect.” International students have been directed to liaise with the Dean of Students for further guidance.

This move affects thousands of students across all Moi University campuses, both local and international. The memo further clarifies that “Re-opening dates will be communicated in due course,” as the university works towards resuming operations as soon as possible.
