Learners at Kapindasum Primary School in the insecurity-prone region of Baringo county have seen it all. From hunger to drought and violence, a day rarely ends without the school children hearing the unnerving sounds of gunshots.

Just last month, while the learners were dispersing for their mid-term break, armed security personnel escorted them to Chemorongion centre, a distance of seven kilometres, to board buses home.
