Shock as orphan reports to form one with an empty metal box
Determined Migori orphan reports to form one with an empty metal box.
Geoffrey Omollo shocked the teachers when he showed up with an empty box and pleaded not to be sent back home.
Kanga is a highly sought-after school in the region and having secured a chance, he was not willing to let it go. Not even lack of money would stand on his way, he demonstrated.
He did not meet the requirements to get admitted to Kanga High School yesterday but the fear of losing the chance and a burning urge to learn saw him report to the institution nonetheless.
He also came unaccompanied since he is a total orphan.
As others were led by parents in long queues to be cleared, he was in the company of his metal box and made his way to the admission block, all along wondering how unfair the society was.
Teachers handling admission were lost for words upon learning that the new student who scored 387 marks in KCPE was a total orphan but determined to report to school at all costs.
“That’s all I could raise since I have no parent. Even the few books and shoes were donated to me by a neighbor whose son had completed high school.” He said.
