A teacher at a popular school in Syokimau, Machakos County, is on the spot over allegations of preying on female pupils.
Writing to this blog on Wednesday, January 4, 2022, a concerned parent at Blessed Assurance Academy claimed that the new school head has brought with him a host of paedophile tendencies which he manifests in broad daylight.
The source informed us that, for instance, he has developed a despicable habit of inviting girls to his office, giving them a tight hug, and proceeding to offer some tea.
There are also claims of the school’s support staff repeatedly molesting female pupils as young as 6 years.
The parent has faulted the current administration for failing to act upon numerous complaints raised about the disturbing issue.
All grievances submitted to the school secretary fall on deaf ears.
Below is what the frustrated parent had to say.
“Greetings Nyakundi.
Mimi naomba unipostie hii.
Kuna shule inaitwa Blessed Assurance Academy Syokimau.
Now, the school has a new head teacher whom they hired after the previous one left, either for greener pastures or just for something else.
My problem is that since then, there has been insecurity among our children, especially girls.
My daughter reported to me that the head will always call her in the morning into the office to hug her tightly and give her tea, not once, not twice.
I have also happened to hear that a parent complained of her daughter, who is only 6 years old, being molested by a support staff, who is old enough to be her great grandfather.
The school receptionist, or rather the secretary who has stayed there, I believe since the school was started, is rude enough to approach and channel our grievances so that it reaches the owners of the school.
So who in the school should really be at the forefront to show a good example?
Doesn’t it seem that every section of the school is rotten?
Please post this and advise on the best school around Syokimau/Katani,” the source wrote.
