From writing their examination under gunshot sounds, learners who excelled in the 2021 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education exams in Baringo are facing yet another crisis.
The learners are unable to join Form One due to a lack of fees and funds to cater to other needs. They celebrated when the results were released last month, but the joy was short-lived. Parents lost their livestock, the only source of income, to bandits and drought.
