NAIROBI: A simple parents meeting at a school in Kasarani, Nairobi turned into a hostage situation after the institution's directors were forced to hide from the wrath of merciless parents.

The two directors Aggrey Kere and Peter Wambua of the Solidarity Child Rescue Centre and Primary School were held hostage in their own office for over seven hours as angry parents camped outside baying for their blood.
