Kenyans pass harsh judgement on Principal of Moi Girls School after student’s rape
Kenyans have vented out their anger at the administration of Moi Girls School, Nairobi following the rape of one student at the institution early on Saturday morning.
On social media, Kenyans have passed a ‘unanimous’ verdict; that the school Principal must go following the latest tragedy to hit the once prestigious national school.
This even after the police launched investigations into the incident in which an unknown man attacked the student in the wee hours, raped her and fled.
More than 24 hours after the disturbing incident, no arrests have been made with the student in question admitted at Nairobi Women’s hospital.
The incident, which comes eight months after 11 students died in an arson attack at the school, left the students, their parents and guardians enraged with the school seemingly unable to give explanations.
On social media, among the voices calling for the Principal’s dismissal are political leaders, media, personalities, bloggers and the general public.
The Principal of Moi Girls where a student was raped must be jailed for the offense of NEGLIGENCE

Women MPs should issue a strong statement indicting the Principal of Moi Girls School Nairobi over the RAPE incident. They should demand her immediate transfer. Students are traumatised. They can’t concentrate. They deserve better.

Last night at Moi Girls with students and their parents. I call upon the Authorities to speed up investigations and immediately arrest anyone who offered a bribe in the form of a scholarship in exchange for silence. This lapse in security is simply unacceptable! pic.twitter.com/qAiRiyQEwj

It is clear that the Principal of Moi Girls high school Nairobi has questions to answer over the alleged rape incident. M.O.E should indict her like yesterday. Those are far too many grave mishaps in her school.

MoE is a disgrace for allowing the Moi Girls Head Teacher to stay after the fire.
