Embu county has been asked to close down all unguarded hostels to prevent incidents like last week's rape of five students. Gangsters allegedly stormed the hostel, raped the Embu College students and made way with their items. Wanjuki asked owners of the hostels to employ guards to provide security to the female students. The MP urged the county and relevant authorities to close down hostels that do not comply with the security measure. “It is unfortunate that gangsters raped innocent girls who have gone to the college in search of a better future.
