Government Spokesperson Isaac Mwaura has revealed government plans to secure jobs abroad for unemployed teachers in Kenya.
In a statement dated Monday, December 9, Mwaura detailed that five major countries had a high demand for tutors. They include the United States of America and Germany.
Mwaura also listed Ireland, Thailand and South Africa among the countries seeking tutors.
Overall, the Government Spokesperson noted that President William Ruto’s administration was targeting 17 countries in the job migration plan.
As part of the plans, the government flagged off some teachers to take up jobs in US district schools in July.
“TSC is one of the largest employers in the whole continent of Africa, currently managing a workforce of 410,258 teachers,” read the statement in part.
“This is against a register of over 805,000 registered teachers, with those not employed by the government engaged in private practice in private institutions and mission schools while over 300,000 qualified and registered teachers remain unemployed.”

“These positions are in the health, agriculture, engineering, financial systems, ICT and computer science among other sectors,” he added.
“Additionally, the National Employment Authority (NEA), which is mandated to enhance access to employment by the youth, minorities and marginalized groups, has a roll of over 560,000 job openings for qualified Kenyans locally and internationally.”
