In Summary

    The students claimed that they were not ready for the exams and that they were not given time to prepare for them.
    Gideon Kemoi, a fourth year education student, said that the administration failed to give them adequate notice to prepare for the exams.
    The students also condemned the administration for what they claimed was its failure to address their grievances in good time.
    Thirteen students were arrested during the mayhem and are expected to appear in court Thursday.

Riots everywhere, also in Dedan Kimathi and Karatina universities too.

They should protest. Unis today are absolute horror stories. Hordes of students everywhere survival of the fittest. Too overcrowded. Everyone just cheating including lecturers. There's no integrity in education sectors, churches. Where can the next generation find hope?

They just need to read, get some knowledge and start income generating projects. There is no employment anymore. Start your own thing.
