Nyamache secondary school dormitory and administration blocks in Kisii County were burned down on Monday evening a few hours after Cabinet Secretary for Education Fred Matiang'i left the institution. Kisii county head teachers’ association chairman, Jairus Onchoke, said the attack at Nyamache was an embarrassment to the minister. Nyamache secondary school was set ablaze barely two and half hours after the CS warning that the government will not fund reconstruction of schools which have been affected by arson attacks. It is a high time a serious dialogue is held among education stakeholders in the county to determine the cause of the fires," Onchoke said. The CS held a funds drive in aid of the school and was accompanied by his Permanent Secretary Belio Kipsang and TSC Chief executive Nancy Macharia.
