In Kenya, free education was introduced in the reign of former President Kibaki and this helped a large quorum to pursue education. As well, it enlightened numerous uneducated groups of people with basic or advanced civil knowledge since it was only free learning in primary level.
However, later on things changed and the institutions started charging for the teaching fees since paying teachers their salaries was a problem to the government. Among the constraints that brought the rise of this was corruption, a major setback to the country.
With recent torching of learning institutions, it has become very worrying especially for the future of the Republic of Kenya. The age groups who were mostly involved in this are between thirteen to seventeen years. Despite other reports that it might be a funded project, it is still not clearly nor worth to start blaming on people who aren't involved nor part of the schools.
My main worry lies on these young pupils and students especially when they reach in higher educational learning levels where there is too much freedom, poor responses to many grievances from students and many more. The generation to come might be a tougher one to be handled by the managerial organs if their attentions are not welcomed on the table or addressed in time.
My greatest wish is that the government should watch out especially on this matter since education is the pillar of every nation for development. From education, we get brighter minds and brains, that foresee every need of the society, and as well successful outputs to organizations requirements under employments.
For a successful Kenya, peace is paramount, and solving of problems in a timely manner is the key.
