Basic Education Principal Secretary John Ololtuaa led a team of national and local leaders to assess the impact of rising water levels in Lakes Baringo and Bogoria on education in Baringo South Constituency. The swelling lakes are expected to negatively affect learning in several schools near the water bodies, including Noosukuro, Leswaa, Lake Bogoria Girls, and Loruk schools. PS Ololtuaa commended the local community for donating alternative land for relocating schools that may be affected. He also sensitized residents on the need to prepare for expected El Niño rains, noting that the weather conditions are likely to coincide with the start of national examinations. He urged education stakeholders and the community to implement measures to minimize disruptions and ensure learners can sit their examinations safely.
