Another Teacher Dies Of Covid-19 At Nakuru Hospital

Leah Chelagat Kulei, a teacher from Olmarai Secondary School in Mogotio, succumbed to covid-19 after she complained of breathing difficulties.

This is the second death after the Tononoka Principal passed on. KUPPET has raised an alarm following the two deaths, asking the government to close down schools.

“My concern is to the government, how many teachers should lose their lives? how many teachers should be confirmed coronavirus positive so that the government can respond? 

“My main concern is, does the government have any concern for the teacher? I’m urging the government in the strongest terms possible to know that our lives are at stake,” a KUPPET official in Baringo county stated.

Japhet Kirui, a Kabarnet High School teacher, echoed the official’s statement saying the situation at his school was worse after a number of teachers and students contracted the disease.

Japhet has urged the government to shut down schools saying the government is gambling with the lives of teachers and students.

“We are telling the government, kindly take our lives seriously, aside from the BBI politics, take the lives of Kenyans seriously. Let you not be that CS to go down in history as one who took a generation of a whole country down because of recklessness and carelessness,” the principal stated.
