A student of Jomo Kenyatta High School preparing
to seat for the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education examination which
started Monday, has been confirmed dead just two hours to his mathematics
paper. The KCSE candidate identified as Francis Gikonyo had been rushed to the
district hospital in Nakuru after he was found critically ill, but on getting
to the hospital the unlucky student collapsed and died.
Francis’s principal Mr. John Mureithi who said he had been in and out of school for the better part of the year, confirmed the sudden demise in a statement saying:
‘It is very unfortunate
that we lost a young and brilliant boy who had a bright future, the student had
a chat with medics before collapsing and dying, adding he died from
hypertension'.
Mr. John Mureithi also confirmed that the boy's parents were
informed of his death and counselors were invited to break the news to his
classmates.
