Lamu Governor Rescues Bungoma Girl Who Repeated Class 8 After Scoring 401 Marks
A Bungoma girl who was forced to repeat Class 8 despite scoring 401 marks in the 2020 KCPE examination is set to join Form One.
This comes after Lamu Governor Fahim Twaha came to her rescue and paid the full Sh53,000 required for her admission to Moi Girls’ High School, Eldoret.
Daina Nyokabi had rejoined Bungoma D.E.B. Primary School on Wednesday after her parents failed to raise her Form One school fees.
Her mother Priscilla Nyanchera said her daughter had been selected to benefit from the Bungoma County scholarship program but her name was mysteriously expunged from the list.
“I have been selling groceries for a very long time and educating my daughter hoping that in the future she will be able to assist me,” Nyanchera said.
Nyokabi was among the top performers in last year’s KCPE at Bungoma D.E.B. primary school.
The teenager will now join Moi Girls’ High School next week, with her mother thanking Governor Twaha for his generosity.
Nominated Senator Millicent Omanga also offered to help the young girl.

That's awesome! Praise be to God!
That's is way way too far....from Lamu to Bungoma yet there's county bursary fund. Others are moving every corner of Mt.Kenya region telling us about bottom up economy. This dishonesty of the highest order. They should be helping the needy ones like this girl. Lamu governor have no interest in bungoma politics. His act was genuine.
Ashante sana Twaha.Seneca would be ashamed if he visited Ruiru,Juja and some areas of Gatundu,Gikuyu and Kiambaa to count the number of non-Gikuyu children being educated by area scholarships/bursary paid by KENYAN TAXPAYERS including Seneca but excluding known elite billionaire tax evader thugs led and protected by muuaji Raila.
Great act of kindness. No need to include the promise though. It’s only a promise by the nominated senator.
Asante sana Ndugu Twaha kwa fadhila uliyomfanyia huyu binti yetu. Bila shaka, unastahili kuvuliwa kofia ya tarabushi kwa kitendo chako cha utu kwa huyu binti yetu. Hongera sana ndugu.
