The Egerton University Council has appointed Prof Isaac Kibwage as the institution’s acting vice-chancellor after the retirement of the embattled VC Rose Mwonya.
Prof Mwonya’s term came to an end on Tuesday after she reached the mandatory retirement age of 70.
But she has moved to court to fight the decision to have her retire, saying she is entitled to serve until she is 74.
The matter will be heard on January 14.
The announcement declaring Prof Kibwage as acting VC was communicated to the students and staff in a notice on Wednesday.
