The Technical University of Kenya (TUK) is unable to pay staff salaries in full, becoming the latest public university to be hit by a cash crunch caused by delays in funding from the National Treasury.

An internal memo from Stephen Karanja, the university's deputy registrar for human resources and registry, shows that staff on grade V and above were paid 65 percent of their July salaries. Only those on Grade IV and below received their full salaries.
