Students Stage Protests Just a Day After Reopening

Students Stage Protests a Day After Reopening at St. Stephen’s Usingo Secondary School

Students at St. Stephen’s Usingo Secondary School in Siaya County took to the streets on Tuesday morning, just a day after schools reopened for the new term.

The learners staged demonstrations outside their school, demanding the immediate transfer of their principal, whom they accused of poor leadership and mismanagement.

The angry students voiced their frustrations, saying that the school administration, led by the principal, had failed to address their concerns.

They claimed the principal was allegedly asking for money from them at a time when the school was already struggling with a shortage of teachers, a situation they said was putting their education at serious risk.

The protests, which reportedly started as early as 6 a.m., were marked by chants, placards, and twigs as the learners aired their grievances.

One of the students lamented that apart from being sent home frequently, the meals offered at the school were inadequate and lacked variety. “We are tired of eating the same meals every day.

We are also tired of being sent home every week. What we want is a principal who is serious about our studies and genuinely cares about our academic progress,” one student told reporters.

The learners further raised concerns about the lack of enough teaching staff, saying that the principal had plans to transfer some teachers, leaving only those he preferred. “This school already does not have enough teachers.

Instead of improving the situation, the principal wants to chase away some of the teachers so that he remains with only a few of his choice,” another student added.

Video footage obtained by Newshub.co.ke showed the protesting learners gathered at the school gate. They carried twigs and placards, chanting slogans against the principal while demanding immediate changes in the school’s leadership.

Teachers tried to calm the situation, but the students remained defiant, insisting they would continue protesting until their concerns were addressed.

This latest incident comes as schools across the country begin their third term. However, unrest in schools has been rising, with Siaya County recording similar cases earlier this year. In April, Ramba Boys High School witnessed chaos after students protested against their principal over allegations of poor leadership and mismanagement.

The demonstrations at Ramba Boys escalated quickly, with furious learners setting fire to the school’s security house near the main gate before forcing their way out of the institution.

Images and videos shared online at the time showed the students storming into a nearby market, carrying placards, and chanting the principal’s name while demanding his resignation.

The protests at Usingo Secondary now add to growing concerns about unrest in schools, especially when students feel that their voices are not being heard and their learning environment is being neglected.
