It was alleged that teachers would be required to manage their Sacco obligations such as making Sacco payments on their own.
Currently, Sacco deductions for loan repayments and contributions are usually deducted before the money is sent to the accounts of teachers.
One of the most famous SaccoS where teachers make monthly contributions includes Mwalimu National Sacco.
"The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has announced that by February 2025, it will end direct Sacco deductions from teachers' salaries," read the fake post in part.
"Teachers will now have to actively manage their Sacco payments on their own. Instead of relying on automatic deductions, they'll use modern payment methods, such as mobile money or online banking."
