CONDOLENCE MESSAGE
KAKAMEGA PRIMARY SCHOOL TRAGEDY
It is with great sorrow, grief and heavy hearts that we send our condolences to all families who lost their dear children during the tragedy at Kakamega Primary School on the evening of February 3, 2020. The death of the 14 young ones is a terrible loss to the entire nation of Kenya and all humanity.
We pray that God Almighty will grant the bereaved families and friends peace and comfort during this sad period. We also pray for speedy and complete recovery for all the children who were physically and psychologically wounded during the incident.
While we appreciate the speedy evacuation of the children to hospital, we do note that this incident once more calls on all of us to give keen attention to safety in learning institutions and other public places. Appropriate measures should be taken against any persons found to be putting the lives of learners at risk through their actions or inaction.
Through our member churches in Kakamega, we will endeavor to provide spiritual and counselling support to the affected families to enable them recover from this tragedy.
May God continually protect our children.
Signed on this 4th day of February 2020 at Jumuia Place, Nairobi.
