Government Pathologist Dickson Mchana has reported the cause of death of pupils who died at Kakamega Primary School. According to Mr Mchana, six out of the 14 pupils killed at the stampede died of suffocation.
too bad we are not getting a public holiday to mourn the Kakamega Primary School pupils.
What if it was a private school?
- The building is condemned
- The director would be in a police cell waiting to be taken to court
- A number of county officials would be jobless, also waiting to be taken to court for approving the building plans
- School closed indefinitely and pupils taken to nearest neighboring schools
- ...... ongezeni zingine
May the poor tiny souls rest in eternal peace

Ghosts, bullying of female pupils? Parental indifference, visieno. Very sad stuff.

 

[Clemens]

Children of the poor have no defenders, the person(s) responsible for their safety should be held responsible.

During the memorial service of 14 pupils who died in a stampede at Kakamega Primary School, area governor Wycliffe Oparanya was booed by a section of residents when he mentioned Moi memorial

 

[Meria]

Oparanya is booed after he mentioned the late President Daniel Toroitich Arap Moi while delivering his speech.

"We made sure we had organised the burial arrangements for these children because as you all know, we have lost the second president of Kenya," he stated as mourners shouted him down.

"We will also be going to Kabarnet to oversee a good send-off," he continued.

KNUT secretary-general Wilson Sossion reads a statement on behalf of his organisation, causes drama at the event by lashing out at CS Magoha, PS Kipsang and Governor Oparanya. Attempts to cut him off were thwarted by the crowd who supported and cheered him on.


"I will state the truth here and may God help me. KNUT is the largest union in East and Central Africa and for those who wanted to disrupt our activities, may they be defeated in Jesus name. I want to read a verse in Matthew which states that whosoever does harm to these children, may a stone be hung on their necks. Someone is responsible for the deaths of these pupils.

"Let me speak on the cause of these deaths. I have seen what the doctors have written and I am happy Boni Khalwale is here with us, a very good friend of mine. The doctors stated that they died out of suffocation and one has a fracture. But why did these students die in a stampede?




Mourners assemble at Bukhungu Stadium for the memorial service of the 14 students who died at Kakamega Primary School


The enrolment of these pupils is the largest we have seen, 3,000 and in Masinde Muliro University of Science and Technology (MMUST) we have 3500. The pupils died out of negligence. We have heard rumours of the other cause (ghosts), that one we leave to the pastors. However, our schools should not be a pathway for all worshippers. We should have one recognised church leading prayers for our pupils.

On the negligence, we should have an inspection committee in charge of the quality assurance and should be under the ministry. Mr Oparanya, do we have one here, no we don't. The ministry under CS Magoha has not organised for one.

No one can cut me off when I am speaking. Sossion is not to be cut off. I will continue. We need a report for also the students who died in Precious Talent tragedy, we have not seen one.

If we hear such a scenario ever again, we shall halt all education services in Kenya immediately. Another issue is that no one should conduct business with our pupils. New buildings should be inspected," Sossion stated.

That staircase where the pupils died did not have a hand rail. Mimi sio fundi but I know that is not right.

If we want to blame people, the first person to be blamed should be the Parents Teachers Association.

If Kenya was a civilized country the engineer who built the building would be charged with negligence and substandard construction.
