What are you doing to stop school arson?

Living

SHARE AND TAG!!!! I am so saddened by the current alarming situation whereby secondary school students all over the country are scorching their school property . My heart is breaking because no body has stood up to speak , act and provide an immediate solution instead all we have heard is blame to the parents for indisciplined children and how they will need to pay for all the wreakage (FYI those were the words of CS for Education Mr Matiangi). The fact that this situation has not become a matter of national importance with close to 80 schools scorched in the last two months is still too disturbing! Everyone including leaders in the education sector are going about their business as if thousand of lives were not put at risk  and property worth of millions destroyed!  This is not right at all, i think someone is sleeping on their job,someone needs to be held accountable again someone needs to stand up and act even if the solution includes an immediate closure of all secondary schools and find out what is the main problem. I suggest a dialogue with these kids, hear them out.Find out why is it every year around July and August must their be such cases which in the past have led to loss of innocent lives? The more we are ignoring these kids the more we are raising a generation of  cowards, low self esteemed individuals who only express themselves through violence and ultimately will turn into  thugs and crooks! Share and tag someone and lets find an immediate solution to this disturbing menace! Mwende Macharia Radio Presenter/Self Empowerment Speaker
