In partnership with the Kisumu Aquatic Association, the tournament included competitions in several categories. Participants demonstrated remarkable talent and determination, with trophies awarded to the winners, medals to the runners-up, and certificates of participation given to all competitors. Makini School-Kisumu exhibited outstanding skill, emerging as the overall champion across all categories, amassing a total of 2013 points to secure victory in the tournament. Mr. Horace Mpanza, Regional Managing Director of Makini Schools, praised the Kisumu campus team for organizing a well-executed event that embodied Makini’s principles of excellence and community spirit. “This tournament united learners from over 10 different schools in a spirit of healthy competition and camaraderie,” stated Mr. Mpanza. “The enthusiasm and energy displayed by the swimmers and their supporters reaffirm our dedication to fostering holistic development through sports and co-curricular activities.” With the opening of this new facility, the school enhances its sports infrastructure, offering students opportunities to cultivate essential swimming skills. This achievement positions Makini as a regional leader in sporting excellence and follows closely after the launch of another advanced sports complex at its Nairobi Campus, representing an investment exceeding Sh100 million.

Pressure is increasing on the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) to relocate Principal Hellen Mabese Luhangala of Tengecha Girls High School

Image
As the third term approaches its conclusion, stakeholders at Tengecha Girls High School in Kericho County are fervently urging the TSC to facilitate the transfer of Principal Hellen Mabese Luhangala.   In a conversation with Citizen Daily News, conducted under strict anonymity due to concerns of retaliation, parents and certain members of the local community assert that Hellen has remained in her position for an extended period without any visible development projects to demonstrate her leadership. The local community is now requesting that the TSC appoint a new principal in January, ideally someone who is a “daughter of the soil.” They allege that she has become adept at leading through authoritarian methods, coercion, intimidation, and threats against those who oppose her alleged involvement in corrupt practices, which have resulted in the misappropriation of public funds during her tenure. Furthermore, it is reported that she employs intimidation tactics against members of th...

The financial mismanagement at ENOOMATASIANI GIRLS SECONDARY SCHOOL has been brought to light.

Image
  The most recent report from the Auditor General for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024, has uncovered mismanagement at Enoomatasiani High School under the administration of Principal Tabitha Mbabu (TSC No. 224359). There are calls for her transfer over mismanagement and not very impressive academic excellence under her leadership. As per the report, the statement of receipts and payments indicates that the school's fund income from parents' contributions amounts to Kshs. 89,627,445, as detailed in Note 4 of the financial statements. An examination of the school's fee structure during the review period revealed that the school fees were raised beyond the limits set by the Ministry of Education (MOE), resulting in an unauthorized increase in annual fees of Kshs. 15,000 for form one students and Kshs. 18,000 for students in other classes. This action contravenes Regulation 44 of the Basic Education Regulations, 2015, which stipulates that no public school or instit...
