Male students at Lugumek Secondary School in Bomet County stormed out of school last night, leaving behind all the girls and only two boys in the compound.
The 154 students, according to Chepalungu sub-county police commandant Phanton Analo, assembled themselves at the school compound at around 11:30 p.m. before marching out of the school premises to unknown destinations.
Analo said the students were calm and didn’t cause any damage while exiting the compound.The school administration had earlier requested the help of the police after leaflets warning of an impending strike were found within the compound.
The police have embarked on a serious patrol in the neighborhood to establish their whereabouts and their intentions.
County Director of Education Leonard Ngugi said a team of his officers has visited the school to assess the situation.
