Shock as Form One found dead in his bed

Kericho, Kenya: Shock gripped Litein High School in Kericho County after a Form One student was found dead in his bed.

The school principal, Moses Ndeda, said the deceased Enock Too, failed to wake up at dawn to prepare for morning classes.

“The school watchman  who was on routine check, found the student dead in his bed,” he said. “Too’s death came as shock as he had not complained of any illness,” he said.

A post-mortem will be conducted to determine the cause of death.

By the time of going to press, officers from Litein Police Station were recording statements from students, teachers and the school community.
