Media personality Willis Raburu and gospel minister Kambua have expressed displeasure with how the Hillside Endarasha Academy tragedy is being handled.
In her message, Kambua opted to remind Kenyans about the said tragedy and what it means to the nation.
She went on to demand anzswers from authorities on what really happened at Endarasha.
“I want to remind you that 17 children were burned beyond recognition at Endarasha. I also want to remind you that over 50 children are STILL MISSING and no one is giving an account! What happened to these babies?? Where are they?? How do children just disappear?!
“We need answers,” Kambua said.
In a separate post, former Citizen TV presenter Willis Raburu also questioned the circumstances revolving around the deadly school fire that killed 21 pupils.
“It’s disgraceful that 21 children died, more fires erupted and yet there are still people walking free, holding offices, strolling along “yatapita” avenue like it business as usual.
“It’s sickening that there are court orders that the upholders of justice and order are deliberately disobeying,” Willis Raburu shared.
The TV host went on to question why those tasked to protect Kenyans are still in office when schools are going on fire every night.
It is appalling that “Special Corruption Vehicles” as @DonaldBKipkorir calls them exist, and are made to the detriment of hardworking, tax-paying Kenyans.
“Yet it is inspiring to see people still speaking up, standing up, exercising their democratic rights to picket and speak and shine a light of accountability when the light of democracy and virtue are dimmed. Don’t give up,”
Kenya Power
On Tuesday, Kenya Power ruled out an electric fault as the cause of the fire at Hillside Endarasha Academy in Nyeri that resulted in the deaths of 21 boys.
“We have ascertained there was no link between the cause of the fire and any fault on our network as alleged in sections of media reports,” Kenya Power said in a statement.
The company said it mobilised a technical team to visit the school and carry out a preliminary analysis of the affected site.
The power company, however, said it will continue to work collaboratively with other investigating agencies to establish the cause of the fire.
"The line supplying the school is a low voltage line from Mweiga sub-station. At the time when the fire incident occurred, supply was stable on this line with no reported incidences," Kenya Power said.
Kenya Power said installations including the meter, supply cable, earthings, low voltage and high tension fuses, and the transformer were intact.
“This was the case for all other adjacent customers supplied by the same transformer.”
