Two teenagers were Friday
arrested when irate residents of
Langa langa Mwisho estate,
Nakuru stormed a one roomed
rental house to rescue a form
three schoolgirl.
The girl was frogmarched to the
area Police post after a gender
activist and a group of irate
villagers stormed the house and
threatened to break in if the
teenagers failed to open the door.
The girl, still donning school
uniform and carrying a rucksack
on her back left peacefully amid
boos from residents forcing her to
seek refuge at the nearby police
post.
The form three student had been
released by her parents to go to
school as schools opened for the
2014 first term but decided to
‘pass’ by her boyfriend’s house.
Ms Jane Wahu, a gender advocate,
said that she received a call from
members of the public who were
disgusted by the girl’s action.
The girl was flushed from the one
roomed house where the two high
school teenagers lived.
Ms Wahu advised parents to be
taking their children to school on
opening days especially young
girls.
“Some students especially the
young girls do not report to school
once released by their parents and
it is a growing trend which calls
for parents to act,” she said.
Area assistant chief Mr Joseph
Macharia said that they arrested
the young men and the school girl
and handed them to the police for
investigations.
He said the girl’s parents had also
been contacted and informed of
the incident.
