RARIEDA: Ramba Boys High School in Rarieda sub county has been closed indefinitely after students went on rampage following death of two form four candidates.
The deceased, Brian Otieno and David Awinda died after they fell into a septic tank on Saturday, March 22.
According to reports, a group of students was waiting outside the latrine when the septic tank suddenly collapsed, causing four students to fall in.
Community members rushed to the scene and managed to retrieve the two bodies, which were later taken to Bondo Hospital morgue. The other two students, who sustained injuries, received treatment.
“It has been years since we raised concerns about this septic tank to our principal, but no action was taken,” said Kombo, a student at Ramba High School.
Following the tragic incident, students went on a rampage in protest, prompting the school administration to shut down the institution.
