Union points out teething challenges in JSS

By Benson Kelio

The National government has been urged to employ more teachers in order to facilitate smooth running of the new education system in Junior Secondary School (JSS).

Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) Baringo Branch Executive Secretary Bishop Joshua Cheptarus pointed out that Competency Based Curriculum in JSS has not taken off the way it should be due to numerous challenges after its first students transited

to grade seven from 30th January this year.

Bishop Cheptarus while speaking exclusively to Rural Times said learners pursuing the 14 subjects are interacting with fewer lessons due to understaffing witnessed in many public schools.

“There is a serious challenge of understaffing in our Junior Secondary which the government must urgently look into in the second term,” he said.

The unionist also stated that there is a serious physical infrastructure deficit coupled with low curriculum learning materials which may affect the quality of education.

“Most schools after the task force late last year recommended JSS to be domiciled in primary schools, do not have important facilities like laboratories for practical lessons nor do they have sufficient books for all the subjects,” said Bishop Cheptarus.

He proposed for a team of stakeholders, experts and officials from the Ministry of Education to visit the various institutions to ascertain the real challenges on the ground and come up with possible workable solutions of sustaining the 2-6-3-3-3 education system.

Bishop Cheptarus’s sentiments were shared by Baringo North MP Joseph Makilap who called for more support from all stakeholders in boosting the country’s education standards.

Makilap said proper planning needs to be put in place especially in most public institutions in order for learners to attain the desired academic performance.

children to do so since they will in turn reap in future,” said the legislator who was making the remarks during this year’s thanksgiving ceremony for Moi High School Kabartonjo.

He asked all school principals in his sub county not to send away children to collect fees, instead look for other modalities of supporting needy students so that their education cannot be interrupted.

The Baringo North MP urged respective schools to create a scholarship fund to gather for more than 20 students whose parents are often challenged in raising their fees.

Makilap stated that well-wishers, stakeholders and alumni will be able to contribute to the kitty and allow the ministry of education, school board of management and local leaders to focus on other pressing needs aimed at enhancing sustainability of the new curriculum.

Kajiado South MP Sakimba Parashina and his Baringo North counterpart Joseph Makilap condemned the habit saying it must stop.

“National Government Constituency Development Fund (NG-CDF) bursary cheques will be disbursed to your respective schools, so it doesn’t make any sense again sending the needy children home for fees” Parashina said.

Addressing school principals in Loitoktok, Parashina said his office is set to release bursaries for the needy students hence no need for them to be kept at home.

“Personally, I will go to any length including meeting the President and Ministry of Education officials to support most schools in my region but I am also urging those parents who are able to invest in their Makilap on his side urged school heads to retain needy children especially those affected by frequent banditry attacks, in school.

He appeals to chiefs and teachers to assist him get the list of children whose parents may have been killed, injured or displaced by bandits, “so we can prioritize their names in the NG-CDF bursary kitty” he said.

He was speaking while gracing Annual General Meeting (AGM) cum launch of strategic plan at Kipcherere Mixed High School on April 6.

He further called upon school heads to ensure conducive and attrac-

tive school environment to enhance enrollment, pointing that poor environment has led many parents to take their children outside Kajiado County to neighbouring counties such as Nairobi and Makueni.

Parashina further urged heads to consider improving schools’ learning environment to enhance retention of learners in schools

He said some parents were already withdrawing their children from some poorly-structured Kajiado schools and taking to well-vanished schools in the neighboring Nairobi and Machakos counties.

Daring armed bandits continue to take over volatile valleys of North Rift region despite government employing a raft of measures to arrest the situation.

Key among them being government deployment of heavily armed Kenya Defense Forces (KDF) soldiers early this year to combat and assist police officers pursue the notorious bandits and cattle rustlers.

“We will use land means and choppers to pursue, smoke out and flatten all the caves harboring bandits” Interior Cabinet Secretary Prof. Kithure Kindiki said.

Kindiki who has been visiting the bleeding North Rift imposed a 30-day dusk-to-dawn curfew in some banditry-hit areas as operation began.

He reiterated that government is committed to ensure banditry comes to an end, peace be restored and communities engage in meaningful economic activities.

Furthermore Defense Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale gazetted deployment of KDF to North Rift Counties in February 2023 with firm promise to bring to an end the menace.

Extra Killings

But even with the stringent measures put in place, armed have further rolled up their sleeves to fight both government and innocent locals.

So they dozens of people have lost their lives as bandits show their might by storming villages, shooting and displacing families among them women and children.

Worst hit areas are Baringo, Turkana, Elgeyo-Marakwet and Samburu counties.

In a span of a week, four people shot dead by bandits were buried in Kagir, Chepkowel and Ng’aratuko villages in Baringo North. Over 40 people were killed in the area since last year.

New Dawn of Hope, Non-Governmental Organization founder Joan Jemutai said hardly a day passes without gunshots are heard in lower parts of Baringo North and Baringo South bordering Laikipia and Elgeyo-Marakwet.

“So far over 800 families have been displaced, forced to live desperate lives in makeshift structures in the bushes” Jemutai said.

She said apart from families, children have also been drawn out of classrooms after over 15 schools were closed owing to runaway insecurity.

Jemutai said the victims are urgently in dire need of humanitarian aid such as food, drugs and clothing

from government and well-wishers.

“As an organization we are overwhelmed by these genuine and dire needs on the vulnerable groups mostly women, children and the elderly” she said.

At the same time, residents at Turkwel belt along West Pokot -Turkana border have also been displaced after resurfacing of fresh banditry attacks and cattle rustling amid ongoing security operation.

Last week five people were shot dead and one injured by suspected bandits from the neighbouring Turkana County.

Those killed are two couples and a man while one woman managed to escape with injuries while resting under a tree in a bush after coming from mining gold in Lami Nyeusi, West pokot.

The incident has happened despite the ongoing joint operation by the KDF and Kenya police.

Several villages and trading centres remain deserted as locals flee for safety.

The villages affected are Orwa,Lami Nyeusi,Kambi Karaya ,Lous,Masol and Sarmach among others.

Locals now fearing for their lives are calling upon government to lift ongoing operation saying it has not bore any fruit in the area.

West Pokot Deputy Governor Robert Komolle calls for peaceful co-existence in the region.

Komolle said residents who are sleeping in bushes have been bitten by mosquitoes, contracted diseases like pneumonia and malaria.

He urged the government to end cattle rustling and restore peace in the area since several children are out of school for fear of more retaliatory attacks.

Furthermore, he appealed to Government to set up a police stations at Lami Nyeusi,Romos, Chesegon ,Amolem and Ombolion areas.

West Pokot county commissioner Apollo Okello has condemned the incident saying his office is moving with speed to build more police stations in the area and increase patrols urging residents to remain calm.

Despite the deployment of KDF banditry have escalated in Elgeyo-Marakwet County, latest being killing of two medics last month.

Salina Jeruto who was a nurse aide at Endo Mission Hospital in Marakwet East Sub County was shot dead by suspected bandits on her way while heading home.

Titus Kandie a Lab Technician was shot dead while herding stock at

a grazing field.

Kenya National Union of Nurses (KNUN) Elgeyo-Marakwet Secretary General Benson Biwott threatened to down their tools in the region after the deadly attacks.

Baringo County Women Representative in the National Assembly Hon Florence Jematia expressed disappointment over what she refers to as failure by the government to stop cattle rustling and senseless killings.

‘’I am saddened by the government failure to stop the killings’’ Jematia said. She spoke during a burial of a bandits attack victim at Kapkomon, Baringo North.

She said she is determined to sponsor a motion in parliament to ensure the Laws of Kenya can classify and treat cattle rustling as terrorism.

“I was earlier arrested for speaking against banditry and I am still ready to be rearrested for speaking loudly on fight against cattle rustling” Jematia said.

In the same funeral, Richard Chepchome, a Baringo North political activist dismissed military plans to build water dams and roads as a mechanism to arrest the runaway insecurity in the region.

‘’Development projects cannot solve the problem of cattle rustling in Baringo. We demand disarmament and an immediate arrest of criminals whose names have already been forwarded to the government security apparatus’’ Chepchome said.

While addressing a school event, Baringo North Member of Parliament (MP) who was former North Rift Economic Bloc (NOREB) Director said as leaders, they have already shared crucial information and ideas with the government.

“Sharing of issues security in public will not benefit us anything it is now incumbent upon government to act upon the agreed resolutions” Makilap said.

EDITORIAL Government should compensate banditry victims

The government should be focused on helping the victims of banditry. This crisis that has now been made a matter of national security by the national government has seen millions of people suffer after they have been displaced, left homeless and suffering in poverty. It is causing pain to the victims who are calling on the government to offer justice and compensation for their loss.

Banditry started back in 1977 and escalated in 2005 in parts of Tot, Endao, Chesoi Chepkesin, Chemoe, Yatya, Kagir, Mukutani Arabal, Rugus and Chebinyin in Elgeyo-Marakwet, Baringo North and Baringo South. It saw hundreds of people killed; others maimed and thousands displaced currently living as Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs). The counties affected by banditry in North rift are Baringo, Samburu, Laikipia, Turkana, West Pokot and Elgeyo-Marakwet. Some victims who get displaced from their ancestral land seek refuge from towns like Marigat and Kabarnet.

The bandits who are keen on expanding territories and fighting for natural resources like diatomite are using the land grabbed from the original owners to conduct projects at the expense of the minors. Currently, the Geothermal Development Company in Silale, Tiaty which is being funded by the government sits on land that was left after the owners fled rendering them homeless. Something that the victims did not wish on themselves.

The main problem facing the displaced owners of the land is poverty. Armed bandits managed to steal thousands of livestock leaving them to suffer in poverty. Just like other human beings, they do not have to pay the price, and instead, the government should see to it that they are well compensated and offered support for them to be able to live normal lives.

Medics should uphold professionalism to minimize risks, curb drugs loss

Medical practitioners no longer do their work as mandated. This has reduced the faith entrusted on them because of the vices that they commit against mankind. It is an issue that has become rampant and is almost becoming a norm. If doctors do not change how they handle their duties, then whom should patients turn to?

First, claims according to the Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi that doctors working in public hospitals are stealing drugs from government hospitals and selling them to private hospitals and chemists is inhumane and is a crime against humanity.

Secondly, the report about of a woman found with a surgical blade in her uterus 11 years after surgery and which has led her to being unable to conceive is a sad story. The two incidents are among

a variety of vices that doctors these days commit against their patients. It could be that mistakes committed by doctors are as a result of carelessness. However, medical practice is a sensitive career and should be handled with extreme care. Doctors should do their jobs out of humanity and avoid focusing on the business part of the career because medicine involves human lives.

Stealing drugs from public hospitals to sell them in the private ones goes against the social pillar of the Vision 2030 which is to improve the quality of life for all Kenyans in sectors including the health sector. If we are to create a better world that is free of poverty and universal health care as stated in the vision, then everyone, including medical doctors should work into achieving that.

Nandi starts mass TB screening

By Correspondent

Tuberculosis is a global public health concern with some estimates suggesting that third of the world’s population carry it in a latent form.

County Health Chief Officer Fredrick Kiptum said few of those carrying latent TB will have the disease being treated easily using multiple antibiotics.

“We have invested significantly in strengthening diagnosis and treatment of Tuberculosis at all health facilities”

He said to improve case detection World Health Organization (WHO) recommended rapid molecular tests like Gene X-pert machines, now available in Nandi.

The risk of onward transmission arises where the disease is in active form in the lungs.

“Although TB normally attacks the lungs (pulmonary TB) it can also affect other parts of the body” Kiptum said.

He said extra-pulmonary TB generally does not transmit to another person like pulmonary TB.

“Risk of disease transmission can be addressed within a few weeks of commencing drug treatment” he said.

He further said County Government of Nandi has started a continuous mass tuberculosis screening to curb the spread of the disease.

TB is an infectious disease that spreads through air from a TB infected person to another. The disease mainly affects the lungs.

Common signs and symptoms include coughing consecutively for three or more weeks, coughing blood or mucus, chest pain, weight loss, night sweating, fever, among others.

The Chief Officer said health teams have also launched door-to-door campaign and screening

Nairobi County seeks to digitize its services, operations

By Correspondent

Mochongoi Technical Institute welcomes students for May intake

Nairobi City County government has signed a partnership with Safaricom in a bid to digitize its services and operations.

Safaricom will develop and support the App dubbed “My Nairobi App” as part of the Nairobi Hub that will provide digital services and citizen engagement.

“We cannot look at Nairobi as what it used to be rather than what it must be. We must be audacious enough to say Nairobi is the African Capital and it is a must to make it account for something”. Said Governor Sakaja

Governor Sakaja said that Nairobi City County Government should be able to serve the people from the comforts of wherever they are.

“Seventy percent (70%) of challenges and opportunities can be sorted by technology and my Nairobi App will enable the County offer services to the people of Nairobi”, Said the county boss.

Safaricom Chief Executive Officer Peter Ndegwa said that Governor Sakaja has a future he envisions and technology and innovation was part of that future.

“Digitizing services will help citizen feel it is easier to engage with the county”, said Ndegwa.

He further said that consequences of paying for services is just an outcome of getting great service rather than the payment being a primary approach.

“At Safaricom, since Nairobi County is our home, we are committed to making a highway on which Nairobi County can use this platform as much as you would like on digital service”, said Mr. Mungania.

County Executive Committee Member for Finance and Economic Planning, Charles Kerich said that the county needs a pleasant dashboard that people can interact with and have an easy experience.

He further said that very many organizations have been looking for interactions with the County before but with the leadership of the Governor and the Deputy Governor, it has now become possible.

The 'My Nairobi Hub' will be available in other digital channels including on the Mpesa Super App and through USSD short code.

The Hub will also include an engagement channel known as 'Bonga na Sakaja' which will enable Nairobi residents engage with the County and share feedback towards improved services.

In addition to the “My Nairobi Hub”, Safaricom will support the County to design digital channels, integrate County backend services and to develop a payment gateway and infrastructure to ensure high availability of services.

“We are offering quality training to our students so they can fit in the job market and also become self-employment” he said.

Fees per year he said is sh56,420 and the government through capitation pays sh30,000 per student. Parent or guardian can choose to clear the remaining balance.

“Again parents should not worry about payment because student can as well apply for HELB loan to gather for their fee balances and accommodation.” Kotut said.

Furthermore he said there are sufficient affordable hostels adjacent to the institutions, renting at only sh2000 per month to gather for students’ accommodation.

On Co-curricular activities Emining TTI is the National champions in Volleyball, Drama and Music.

Kotut noted a few challenges like infrastructure, training equipment especially in agriculture and food and beverages.

He said Emining TTI is a drug free area saying they have partnered with the provisional administration to ensure traders don’t sell illicit drugs like alcohol to students.

The principal encourages students who have completed their courses to reach out and register for the first graduation ceremony to be held later in the year.

AIC Academy in Kabarnet town, Baringo Central collects dozens of reading materials through successful book harvesting exercise.

Dozens of story books were heaped before over 300 pupils who gathered during the unique event to showcase their learning interest.

“The initiative was organized by board of management, parents, teachers and non-teaching staff to inculcate reading culture in our school” head teacher Bernard Yegon said. Equity, Cooperative and KCB banks were among key stakeholders who contributed over sh10, 000-worth story books for the young learners.

Yegon said more funding is still needed to procure enough story books ranging from play group to grade six classes.

“It wasn't easy for the school alone to achieve the dream of acquiring the story books if it wasn't with the support of stake holders” he said.

The head teacher said contribution exercise is ongoing until enough books are acquired to benefit the learners.

The school parents led by Almaida Ayabei lauded the school administration for the noble idea saying it will go a long way to foster academic excellence.

School Board of Management

Matetai further said the school has constructed Junior Secondary classes worth sh6million, equipped with a library and laboratory to serve the students.

Victorine Rono from the cooperative bank said as a financial institution they will always support the community through Cooperate Social Responsibly (CSR).

Event’s guest of honor Reverend Joshua Katamei urged AIC Academy pupils to stick to the school Moto 'reading is power' for a luminous future.

He thanked parents and partners for their overwhelming support.
