Kagonye Secondary School in Othaya, Nyeri County has been temporarily closed, with all 384 students sent home following a walkout that occurred in the early hours of Saturday, August 31.<\/p>\n
According to a police report, the school management and the Sub-County Director of Education decided to release the students today at 7:30AM to ease tensions and prevent potential damage to school property.<\/p>\n
The incident, which took place at 2:00AM on Saturday, raised concerns among the school administration and authorities.<\/p>\n
A roll call conducted shortly after revealed that several students were unaccounted for.<\/p>\n
However, the School Principal, Mr. Francis Wanjohi, has since confirmed that all missing students have been located and are now safely at home.<\/p>\n
This incident comes as learning in secondary schools across the country remains paralyzed due to the ongoing teachers\u2019 strike, now entering its second week.<\/p>\n
The Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) is pushing for the implementation of the 2021-2025 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA).<\/p>\n
