Touched by the good performance of a girl said to have been abandoned by relatives, Chuka Girls' High School staff have settled a fees balance of Sh60,000.

Fancy Kathambi, who attained grade B+ in last year's Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education examination, claimed she was rejected by his biological father after her mother remarried. She was also chased away from their home.
